 ripening the head burfts through the two coats or 

 wrappers ; the inner wrapper, detaching itfelf from

CLAVARIA TUBEROSA. 



I FOUND this alfo in Stone-Park, Suffex, growing 

 on flicks, burfting its way through the bark. The 

 root is tuberous, and held to the wood by threads a 

 little above the bafe, fomewhat knobby where the 

 plant afcends, which is a little tubular and pointed.

IJROUGHT me by Mr. Jonathan Peckover, who 

 found it growing on an old fack of faw-duft in his 

 wine-cellar at Wifbeach. Even this plant, fo finely 

 fibrous, has white farinaceous ends, analogous to pol- 

 len or fr unifying duft ; alfo capful es below.. Thus it 

 anfwers to the clafs Moncecia of Linnseus — a circum- 

 ftance which feems proper to the Spharias. My friend 

 William Skrimfliire Efq. jun. of Wilbeach firft ob- 

 ferved the farinaceous powder on this plant.
