BRITISH FUNGI. 67 



Hyphelia rosea. Fr. Sijs. Myc. ni. 211. 

 Tliallns radiating, white, pseudo-peridium flattened, pubescent, 

 membranaceous, very fragile ; spores minute, glolose. — Berk. ^ 

 Br. An7i. N. H., No. 1447. 

 New Pitsligo. 



Clavazia cuxta. Fr. F^jic. it., GG8. 

 Small, very mucli branched, gTeenish-yellow ; stem none ; 

 branches short, crowded, obtuse. — B. ^ Br. Ann. JV. H., No. 

 1448. 



On the ground. Coed Coch. Holm. Lacy. 



Clavazia tuberosa. Sun\ Fung. t. 199. 

 Simple, yellowish, attenuated at the apex, swollen in a bulbous 

 manner at the base, attached by mycelioid fibrils. 

 On sticks. Forres (Rev. J. Keith). 



" Exactly the long lost plant of Sowerby, which is perhaps too 

 near C ardenia ; and possibly the same may be said of G. juncea, 

 notwithstanding the great difference of size," — B. ^ Br. N. H., 

 Jan. 1875, j^J- 32. 



Txichobasis Fzimulse. Cooke. Fringi Br'itt. ii., Av. 141. 



Uromyces Primula?, Lev. " Cooke Handbook," No. 1471. 



Tzichobasis Xridis. Cooke Fungi Brltt. ii., J^'^o. 142. 



Uromyces Iridis, Lev. " Cooke Handbook," No. 1466. 



Trichobasis Ulmaziae. Cooke, Fujigi Jiritt.ii., JVo. H6. 



Uromyces Uhnarice, Lev. " Cooke Handbook," No. 1461. 



These three species all clearly belong to Trichobasis, and not to 



Uromyces. The peduncles are very fugacious, to say nothing of 



other points of structure in which the affinities are decidedly with 



Trichobasis. 



Eustegia arundinacea. Fr. Flench., it., 112. 

 Erunipent, operculum collapsing, depressed, umbonate ; cups at 

 first membranaceous, pallid, then black. Asci linear- clavate, 

 sporidia narrowly elliptical or subfusiform, straight, 1-2 nucleate, 

 paraphyses copious, linear. — Berk. ^ Br. Ann. N. Hist., No. 1500. 

 Stegia Arundinacea, Fckl. Syn., App. 328. Peziza Kneiffii, Wallr, 

 Crypt. Fl. pp. 483 (not Rehm). 



On reeds. New Pitsligo (Rev. J. Fergusson). 

 Sporidia -01 mm. long. 



This is one of the j)lants about which much confusion has 

 gathered. Under the name of Peziza Kneiffii, sp)ecimens are found 

 in some herbaria which are only forms of Peziza fusca, and Dr. 

 Rehm has published in his Ascomyceten a very neat little Peziza 

 under the name of Peziza Kneiffii, which is something very 

 different. This is a true Peziza of the section Dasyscypha to 

 which we have attached the name of Peziza Winteri, Dr. Winter 

 having collated most of Dr. Rehm's species. Specimens oi Peziza 

 Kneiffii from the late C. Montagne, of Eustegia arundinacea from 

 Fries, and also from Mougcot, are all, with slight variations in the 

 size of the sporidia, intrinsically the same.
