Harvey: Mvxogasters of Maine

129. C. anrantiaca Schrader. 



Bradley, Me., 1898 (Harvey). On rotten wood. Our speci- 

 ments are C. vulgaris Schrad., which Lister refers to the above. 



130. Arcyria irregularis Racib. 

 Oronp, Me., 1896 (Harvey). Mr. Morgan says ** these speci- 

 mens puzzled me greatly. It is possible I have overlooked it in 

 previous specimens, confounding it with Hciiiiarcyria stipata Schw,. 

 This I am confident Lister has done, which accounts for his A. 

 stipata. There is the appearance of something abnormal about it, 

 but the capillitium and spores appear all right. I can see no 

 spirals on the threads ; they are thickly set with prominences or 

 blunt spines in some places. The threads do not appear to be at- 

 tached to the wall but arise out of the stipe. I think it is an 

 Arcjyria. I cannot refer it to Hcmiarcyria stipata Schw. though 

 superficially it looks like it. A. irregularis Racib. describes it very 

 well." 



Arcyria minor Schw, 



An abundant species in Maine was always referred to A. incar- 

 nata Pers. by Dr. Rex. Mr. Morgan thinks A. ajim's Rost. the 

 same thing, and that is the same as A. vcnnicularis Schum. an 

 older name that should be restored.

. Lycogala replctum Morgan. . 



Pea Cove, October, 1898, (Ilarvey). 



A single cluster of sev-

half. 



Growinsf on a live elm about a foot from the ground in the 



edge of a hollow in the tree. 



This is a larger species than Z, 

 plavo-fiiscuui and the tubules are branches of broad flat mem- 

 branes, instead of cylindrical outgrowths directly from the walls. 

 The type specimens were collected by Mr. Parish in California. 

 It is remarkable to find the species so far east.

I am disposed to think this form 



equal to Lycogala tcstaccum (VVallr.), described in Flora Germanica." 

 This is referred to Lycogala flavo-fuscuni in Saccardo, but is prob- 

 ably distinct.

A specimen sent Mr. Morgan was named as above. There is
