REPORT OF THE BOTANIST. 65 
GEOGLOSSUM VELUTIPES 2. sp. 
Subcespitose, black; club short, compressed; stem 
_densely clothed with a very black velvety pubescence; asci 
lanceolate ; spores fasciculate, at first simple or triseptate, 
then elongated and nine to eleven-septate, brown, .002’— 
-005’ long ; paraphyses septate, recurved at the tips. 
Ground in hemlock woods. Oneida. Warne. Nortb- 
ville. August. 
This species is easily distinguished both by its somewhat 
ceespitose habit and its very black hairy stem. The differ- 
ence between the young and the mature spores is quite notice- 
able. I have not seen specimens of G. Walteri, a hairy 
species from Australia, but as it is said to have the spores 
seven-septate it must be distinct from our plant. 
PxEzIzA ONOTICA Pers. 
Ground in woods. Williamstown and Northville. Au- 
gust. 
P. unicisa is deemed only a form of this species. 
PEZIZA REPANDA Wahl. 
Ground and decaying wood. Croghan. September. 
This is not rare in woods and in damp shaded places. It 
is quite variable in size and in the degree of expansion of 
the cups. 
PEZIZA PALLIDULA C. & P. 
Decaying beech wood. Croghan. September. 
PEZIZA OMPHALODES Buwil. 
Burnt ground. Sandlake. August. 
When confluent, as it often is, it has more the appearance 
of some Corticium than of a Peziza. 
PEZIZA FUSICARPA (er. 
Ground. Poughkeepsie. Gerard. North Greenbush and 
Williamstown. August. 
This, according to specimens received from Dr. Curtis, is 
the P. velutina B. & C.in his Catalogue of North Carolina 
Plants. 
PEZIZA SEPULTA FY. 
Sand hills near West Albany. October.
