Phaeobulgaria 233 



Ombrophila limosa Rehm, Ann. Myc. 11: 154. 1913. Described from 

 material on dead leaves of Carex limosa from London, Canada. No specimens 

 have been seen. 



Ombrophila Lysichitonis Kanouse, Mycologia 39: 672. 1947. Reported 

 on Lysichiton camtschatcense from Washington b>- Dr. B. Kanouse. The 

 description strongly suggests Ombrophila Claims. 



Ombrophila limosella (Karst.) Rehm, Ascom. 50S; Ber. Naturh. V'er. 

 Augsburg 26: 122. 1881; Pesiza limosella. Karst. Not. Soc. Fauna Fl. Fenn. 

 10: 152. 1869; Ombrophila violacea var. limosella Karst. Myc. Fenn. 1: 88. 

 1871. This species has been reported from Washington by Dr. B. Kanouse. 

 As will be seen it was originally regarded as a variety' of Ombrophila violacea, 

 the identity of which is uncertain as indicated above. 



Ombrophila pellucida A. L. Smith, Jour. Linn. Soc. 35: 14. 1901. De- 

 scribed from material collected in Dominica. No material seen. 



Ombrophila similis (Berk. & Curt.) Sacc. Syll. Fung. 8: 614. 1889; Bul- 

 garia similis Berk. & Curt.; Berk. Jour. Linn. Soc. 10: 370. 1868. On dead 

 wood in Cuba. This is said to differ from Coryne sarcoides in its much smaller 

 spores. Its identity is uncertain. 



Ombrophila subsqualida Rehm in Rab. Krypt.-FI. V: 1226. 1896. This 

 species has been reported from Michigan by Dr. B. Kanouse. No material 

 has been seen. 



Ombrophila subaurea Cooke, Bull. Buffalo Soc. Nat. Sci. 2: 300. 1875. 

 Saccardo suggests that this is close to Ombrophila enterochroma {Kriegeria 

 enterochroma) and the size of the spores, 5 X 30 a^, would so indicate. Speci- 

 mens distributed by Ellis (N. Am. Fungi 394) do not agree with Peck's descrip- 

 tion and are apparently small specimens of Coryne sarcoides. 



44. PHAEOBULGARIA Seaver, Mycologia 24: 253. 1932. 



Apothecia medium large, decidedly gelatinous within, dis- 

 tinguished from Bulgaria by its inoperculate asci and brown 

 spores; asci clavate, 8-spored; paraphyses filiform. 



Type species, Peziza inquinans Pers. 



Only one species of this genus known at the present time. 

 Fries included this with Bulgaria since at that time no distinction 

 was made between the operculates and the inoperculates.
