puberulous within, and the corona-lobes larger than usual, 4 in. long, 3 lin. 
broad, subquadrate-rhomboid, emarginate at the obtuse apex, without teeth at 
the lateral angles or on the inner face, and the base of the appendage passing 
into 2 widely diverging keels, otherwise the specimen was identical with the 
usual form, with which it was found growing.
