Plant scarcely half a line broad. Rotten wood. Catskill moun- 
tains. July. ; 
Peziza Tinie n. sp. 
Gregarious, minute, cup sessile, concave, externally densely 
white villous, the disk pale yellow or cream colored, often con- 
cealed by the inflexed hairs. 
Dead branches of Zilia Americana. Knowersville. July. 
Very different from P. teliacea Fr. The largest cups are scarcely 
half a line broad. 
Prziza Prrsoonnt Moug. 
Stems of Hyuisetum hyemale. Center. November and May. 
Our plant is generally sessile and often crowded or tufted in its 
mode of growth. When moist it is much expanded and flattened 
on the disk. Further observation may show it to be a distinct 
species. 
Nopvunaria nov. gen. 
Receptacle fleshy, margined ; disk dusted with the spores ; asca 
large, fixed ; paraphyses present, nodose or sub-moniliform. 
This genus is intermediate between Peziza and Patellaria. From | 
the former it is separated by the dusted hymenium and nodulose 
paraphyses, from the latter by the presence of paraphyses. The_ 
name is derived from the Latin nodulus, and is given in allusion 
to the little knots of the paraphyses. 
NopuLARIA BALSAMICOLA ”. Sp. 
Cups flattened, sessile, scattered or somewhat confluent, often 
irregular, with a distinet, more or less flexuous, incurved margin, 
externally pinkish white, slightly silky-villous; disk luteous, incli- 
ning to reddish or orange, whitish-dusted under a lens; asci large, 
clavate, obtuse, somewhat irregular or flexuous; paraphyses sub- 
flexuous, with two or three moniliform nodes at the top; spores 
globose, echinulate. 
Dead branches of the balsam fir, Adées balsamea. Indian Lake.

The cups are 1-2” in diameter and are attached by a little point 
which penetrates the bark.
