Has. On branches of Juniperus Virginiana. South Carolina. 
Mr. Ravenel. 
Forming small snow-white crust-like patches without any distinct 
border, densely sprinkled with minute sharp-pointed granules. 
Evidently distinguished from Kneiffia setigera by its persistent snow- 
white tint, like that of Corticium acerinum, which it at first sight some- 
what resembles. 
235. setae Pteruloides, Berk. and Curt.; pallida; stipite com- 
presso hymenio undique tecto sursum diviso, ramis paucis; ramulis 
stat fastigiati sterilibus. Curt. No. 1745. 
n the ground. South Carolina. 
Aion l inch high, cream coloured, stem compressed, smooth, 
clothed with the hymenium, as are the few branches into which it is 
divided above; ramuli numerous, subulate, fastigiate, barren 
This species has very much” the habit of a Pterula. It is s allied to 
Thelephora pallida, but is quite distinct. 
236. Stereum calyculus, Berk. and Curt. ; pusillum ; pileo cyathiformi

Has. In damp shady woods. digito Santee River. Mr. Ravenel. 
Pileus cup-shaped, 4 of an inch broad, extremely thin, umber, opake, 
minutely tomentose. Stem + an inch iens lof a line thick, umber. 
Hymenium whitish, very obscurely venos 
Allied to Stereum curtum, Fr., and S. pesi Berk., but especially 
to the latter, and distinguished by its very regular pileus, which is not 
at all shining, or apparently zoned. 
237. Stereum subpileatum, Berk. and Curt.; resupinatum effusum 
crassum suberosum a matrice solubile, e Wd quee supra

Resupinate, spreading several inches on dead trunks, extremely hard. 
Hymenium smooth, pale, wood-coloured, or nearly white. Upper 
surface, where it separates from the matrix, tawny brown, grooved 
and zoned, velvety.
