TRICHIA ALBA. With. ed. 3. v. 4. 398. 



JtVOTTEN flicks and ftumps in very wet fituations 

 commonly afford this plant, growing in different di- 

 redions. In the latter ftate, when the white fkinny 

 powdery deciduous covering (which may poflibly be 

 the polleniferous part) is dilTolved, the inner en- 

 tangled fibres, containing the feeds, are difclofed, 

 forming a dark-brown head, occafionally having fome 

 of the fkinny coat left at the bottom, which makes it 

 accord with Clathrus recutitus Linn. Is it not in this 

 latter flate C. ater of Hudfon, and Mucor cancellatus 

 ofBatfch?

The diflinaion of this fpecies refls folely perhaps 

 on colour. I have found Trichia denudata approach- 

 ing the buff colour by degrees, even to half an indi- 

 vidual plant, at the fame time more than ufually 

 lengthened and reclining. The plant here figured 

 grew under a balcony in great perfeilion, and fo full 

 of fine powder, or feed, as almofl to conceal the form 

 of each individual, efpecially in the advanced fpe- 

 cimens.
