C. Sistotremoides (Schw.) Massee 



Thck'phora Sistotremoides Schweinitz, Naturforsch. Ges. Leip- 

 zig Schrift. 1: 109. 1822. — Corticium suffocatum Peck, N. Y. 

 State Mus. Kept. 30: 48. 1879. 



Tj'pe: under the name Odontia Sistotremoides of Curtis Herb, 

 in Farlow Herb, and probably also in Berkeley Herb, at Kew and 

 Schweinitz Herb. 



I was misled as to C. Sistotremoides in my presentation of the 

 species m Mo. Bot. Gard. Ann. 4: 249. 1917, by having to base 

 the work on the descriptions formerly published. I have since 

 found in Farlow Herb, a piece 12 X 6 mm. of the authentic 

 specimen from Schweinitz Herb. This specimen is in excellent 

 preservation; a preparation from it wholly changes the concept of 

 C. Sistotremoides, whose description should become: — 



Fructifications effused, thin, membranaceous, not fleshy, some- 

 what separable, becoming sepia in the herbarium, even, not 

 papillate; in section 200-300 [x thick, colored like the hymenium, 

 composed of colored hyphae 4-4}/^ [i in diameter, incrusted, not 

 nodose-septate, loosely arranged and interw^oven, rather irregular 

 in form; no cystidia present or not distinguishable from im- 

 mature basidia; spores colored, even, 9-10 X 6 ;jl. 



Authentic specimen is on reddish brown coniferous bark. 



The type specimen of C. Sistrotremoides is darker than that of 

 C. suffocata but not specifically distinct in my opinion. The 

 account and distribution published for the latter in my earlier 

 work applies to C. Sistotremoides. The descriptive matter pub- 

 lished there for C. Sistotremoides should be struck out.
