MASSEE AND CROSSLAND : FUNGUS FLORA OF YORKSHIRK. 275 



1914. Erinella Nylanderi Rehm. [Peziza sidphurea 

 Pers.; Lachniivi siilphnrcum Karst.; Trichopeziza snlpJntrea Sacc.]. 



S.W. — Hebden Bridge : several places, on dead nettle- 

 stems (Fl. Hx.). Hitherto confounded in this country with 

 Dasyscypha stdphnvea (Mass. Brit. Fung. Fl. iv. p. 304). 



ECHINELLA Mass. gen. nov. 



1915. Echinella setulosa Mass. and Crossl. 



S.W. — Common on the moors and in the doughs of the 

 parish of Halifax, on dead ling-stems, Calliina vulgaris, under 

 the bush while still attached to the parent plant (Fl. Hx.). 

 Eller Carr, Cullingworth, on dead ling. 



N.E. — Scarboro', on dead stems of CaUiina vulgaris. 



Has a great resemblance to Mollisia cinerea for which it has, 

 no doubt, often been taken. Certain to be found in additional 

 localities if looked for. 



1916. Echinella vectis Mass. [Peziza vectis B. & Br. ; 

 Pirottaa vectis Phil. Brit. Disc. p. 284, pi. viii. fig. 52 | . 



N.E. — Scarboro', on dead stems of Centanrea nigra. 



1917. Echinella Crosslandl Mass. 

 N.E. — Scarboro', on decorticated wood. 



S.W. — Hebden Bridge, on decorticated wood (Fl. Hx.). 

 " Superficially resembling Dasyscypha corticalis, but distin- 

 guished by the 3-septate spores" (Mass. Brit. Fung. Fl. iv. 



pp. 306-7). 



TAPESIA. 



1918. Tapesia fusca Fckl. [Peziza fusca Pers,]. 

 S.W. — Frequent on dead wood, twigs, and occasionally 



ling, in the neighbourhoods of Halifax and Hebden Bridge 

 (Fl. Hx.). Nab Wood, Saltaire, on dead twigs (Lees' Fl.). 

 Goitstock, on dead poplar-sticks. 



N.E. — Scarboro', on dead bark. Hackness (Exc, '97). 



Mid W.— Harewood (F.F. '98). 



N.W.— Rokeby ; Brignall (F.F. '04). 



In some instances the tapesium is almost or quite absent 

 and then the ascophore requires to be carefully distinguished 

 from Mollisia cinerea and allied species.
