and true difleplments ; but although ' fafcise,' fimilar to thofe mentioned under 

 C. muralis, with which this fpecies has a ftrong affinity, frequently appear, diffe- 

 piments may alfo be difcovered ; and indeed I confider the remarkably abrupt 

 manner in which the juices are frequently feen to have collapfed in fome others 

 as well as the prefent fpecies, as a clear indication of their exiftence. To the 

 naked eye the fize of the filaments, their mode of growth, and color ; and, 

 under the microfcope, their Angular ramification, at once diftinguifh C. diftorta, 

 from all other fpecies. It adheres, when dried, to either glafs or paper. 



A. C. diftorta, natural fize.
