8? TWENTY-SIXTH REPORT ON THE STATE MUSEUM. 
Decorticated sticks. North Greenbush. October. 
It resembles, in color and texture, fragmeuts of the albumen of 
a cocoa nut. The cups are cracked and fissured in drying. In its 
soft substance it approaches the section JMollisia. 
' Pxeziza corrucata C. & P. 
Subgregarious; cups subglobose, then expanded and ‘nearly 
plane, black, the margin elevated; hymenium corrugated, ele- 
vated in the center when dry, attached to the matrix by delicate 
radiating fibrils; asci subclavate; spores narrowly fusiform, two 
to three nucleate, .0006—.0008 in. long. 
Decaying wood. North Greenbush. November. 
It is allied to P. compressa. The spores probably become tri- 
septate. 
PxEzizA CHRYSOPLITHALMA Gerard. 
Damp earth among mosses. Poughkeepsie. Gerard. 
HELOTIUM RUGIPES 7. sp. 
Cups concave, then expanded, sometimes with a small dimple or 
umbilicus in the center, externally brown, yellowish in the dried 
state; disk greenish-brown, sometimes yellowish; stem short, 
tapering downwards, rugose-lacunose, the wrinkles extending 
upwards on the cup; asci slender, cylindrical; spores uniseriate, 
uniseptate, elliptical, .0003 x .00015 in. . 
Rotten wood. Worcester. July. 
The cups are 2’’-4” broad. In the dried specimens before me 
the hymenium has retained its greenish-brown hue. 
' 
HELOTIUM THUJINUM 72. Sp. . 
Cup smooth, subsessile, concave or nearly plane, orange, exter- 
nally a little paler ; spores globose, .0003 in. in diameter. 
Fallen branchlets of arbor vite, Zhwja occidentalis. Lowville. 
September. 
HELOTIUM MACROSPORUM 7. Sp. - 
Cups at first nearly closed, then expanded and slightly concave, 
whitish, externally furfuraceous; stem short, rather thick; spores 
oblong, containing a single large nucleus, .001—.0012 in. long. 
Decaying wood of beech trees. Worcester. July. 
The plant changes to a light brown in drying. The long spores 
suggest the specific name.
