Theissen states (Ann. Myc, IX., p. 66) that this is Hypocrella 

 ochracea Mass., but he does not appear to have seen the type 

 specimen; the general shape would agree with that of the latter 

 species.

 liemiph aerie o-colliculosis, pallide subaurantiis, glabris, 1*5-3

 globosis, 250-300 ^ diam., stroma te immersis, plus minus 

 prominulis : ostiolo vix papillulato ; contextu carnuloso, 

 indistincto ; ascis cylindraceis, apice subtruncato-rotundatis,
