 LYCOPERDON cervinum. Hudf. 641. 



1 HIS muft not be confounded with the L. cervinum 

 of Bolton, which is only a young fpecimen of the fpe- 

 cies in the laft plate. This may be readily diftinguillied 

 by the granular covering and brittle texture. The 

 former is of a tough and fomewhat leathery fubftance, 

 with a fcaly outlide, and grows moftly above ground. 

 This fcarce fliows its upper part above ground. They 

 both break irregularly, and have very few fibres 

 among the feed. 



TAB. CCLXX. 



LYCOPERDON graniformis. 



Jb IRST fhown me in Lord Mansfield's wood, Hamp- 

 ftead, by Mr. Hunter, who fliowed me the laft. It 

 grows loofe, lying like fmall fhot above ground with- 

 out any apparent root. From its firft or fmalleft fize 

 it alters but little in colour. The riper ones are very 

 brittle, and crack irregularly. They enclofe a black 

 powder.
