Part 1, 1910] HYPOCREACEAE 45 
12. Hypomyces macrosporus Seaver, Mycologia 2: 80. 1910. 
Stromata consisting of an effuse subiculum entirely covering the hymenium of the host 
and obliterating the gills, pallid or pale-ochraceous (in dried specimens), covered over with 
a pale-yellow powder (spores); perithecia numerous and thickly scattered, entirely im- 
mersed or with the necks slightly protruding, darker than the stroma; asci cylindric; 
spores 1-seriate, strongly overlapping, fusiform, with an apiculus at each end, 1-septate, 
not constricted or the constriction so slight as to be scarcely noticeable, strongly verrucose, 
hyaline, or very pale-yellowish, 35-40 8-94. 
On some gill-fungus. 
TYPE LOCALITY: [Auburn,] Alabama.

DOUBTFUL SPECIES 
Flypomyces alboluteus Ellis & Ev.; Cockerell, Jour. Inst. Jamaica 1: 262, nomen 
nudum. 1893. Based on imperfectly developed material; said to be Glaziel/a aurantiaca 
(Berk. & Curt.) Sacc. 
Hlypomyces asterophorus Tul. Fung. Carp. 3: 55. 1865. The spores which were 
described by Tulasne as the macroconidia of this fungus are now claimed to be the chlamydo- 
spores of the host, Asterophorus Clavus (Schaeff.) Murrill. It is due to this confusion of 
the conidia of the parasite and the chlamydospores of the host that the species has been 
reported from North America. The perfect fruit of the Aypomyces has not been found in 
America.

collection. 
Hypomyces ochraceus (Pers.) Tul. Fung. Carp. 3:41. 1865. Sphaerta ochracea Pers.
