Mutinus Fhischeri, Peuzig. From the same locality was also 

 obtained Ithyphallus tenuis, Ed. Fischer, differing from the 

 original description in having pure white stalks : and a 

 species of Protubera, apparently new, has been found at 

 Nuwara Eliya (6,200 feet). 



Further collections of Aseroe show that the disc of this 

 species is subject to considerable variation in the part which 

 bears the gleba. Fig. 12 was drawn from a specimen of Aseroe 

 rubra typica. Recent specimens of Aseroe rubra zeylanica 

 have a more elaborate structure ; and tlie examples of Aseroe 

 at present available seem to indicate that the difference in 

 the structure of the disc is correlated with the difference in 

 the arrangement of the arms.
