Asterostroma albidoearneum, Massee. 



Note. This species is founded on the Corticium albidoearneum of Rav. 

 Fung. Car. 4 ; 14 which was supposed by Ravenel to be the same as Thele- 

 phora albidocarnea, S. This however is not the case as shown by Massee's 

 examination and our own examination of authentic specimens of Thelephora 

 albidocarnea, S. from Herb. S. which is not an Asterostroma. The true 

 Thelephora albidocarnea, S. which is the Corticium albidoearneum, (S.) 

 Massee is not to be confounded with the present species. The references to 

 Corticium albidoearneum in American literature relate in some cases to 

 Corticium albidoearneum, (S.) Massee, q. v. We have given here those which 

 belong properly to Asterostroma albidocarnetan, Massee. The citations of 

 Morgan and Kellerman & Werner probably belong here but we have not 

 seen specimens representing them.
