12. Calloria glagosa (Ellis & Ev.) Seaver, comb. nov. 



Peziza glagosa Ellis & Ev. Jour. Myc. 4: 56. 1888. 

 Pezizella glagosa Sacc. Syll. Fung. 8: 276. 1889. 

 Hymenoscyphus glagosus Kuntze, Rev. Gen. PI. 3^: 485. 1898. 



Apothecia sessile, smooth, .25 mm. in diameter, milk-white

 asci clavate, reaching a length of 70-75 ^ and a diameter of 7-8 ju, 

 gradually attenuated at the base, 8-spored; spores 2-seriate, or 

 crowded above, long-ellipsoid, or clavate, 2.5-3 X 8-10 fx, be-

 thickened above.

Ellis seemed a little uncertain about the septation of the 

 spores which leaves the species somewhat in doubt. W. L. 

 White regards this as a Helotium.
