Simblum. Here, there rise from the lattice bars toward the outside, 

 cinnabar red and cross-wrinkled processes which, however, generally end 

 free but occasionally do anastomose at their ends with neighboring 

 processes. These ends are often broadened into two short aliform proc-

 upper portion of young fructification. A, gleba; PI, plates of intermediate tissue; G, volva

esses. Generally a process corresponds to every mesh of the lattice and 

 bends obliquely over its mesh. On the processes and between them, 

 traces of dark spore masses still remain (E. Fischer, 1891). 



As in Lysurus, the gleba develops toward the exterior of the receptacle 

 lattice; thus the tramal plates proceed in all directions from the columella,
