this, however, could not be made out with absolute certainty. 
The brown hyphae of the mycelium are all connected by a very 
thin, nearly hyaline pellicle in which here and there slender, 
subhyaline or yellowish hyphae, 1-2 » broad, are to be seen. 
We have found a similar pellicle in Phaeoschiffnerula.

(Cke.) Theiss. et Syd., is characterized by the regular stromata 
and the comparatively large spores.
