NEW SPECIES OF FUNGI. 19 
Acremonium flexuosum. 
Plate 1, figs. i6-18. 
Flocci procumbent, interwoven, branched, forming a thin, soft, 
tomentose, white or cream-colored stratum, the branches widely 
divergent, sometimes opposite, narrowed and flexuous toward the 
tips and bearing scattered, alternate spicules or sporophores ; spores 
oval or elliptical, .0005 to .0008 in, long, .0003 to 0005 in. broad. 
Decaying wood. Griftins, Delaware county. September. 
From Acremonium album it differs in habit and habitat, as well as 
in the flexuous terminal portions of the flocei and their alternate 
pointed spicules ; and from dAcremonium alternatum it is distinguished 
by its elliptical spores. 
Sepedonium brunneum. 
Effused, pulverulent, brown ; spores globose, rough, .0008 to .001 
in. in diameter. 
Decaying fungi. Gansevoort. August. 
This is similar in habit to Sepedontum chrysospermum, from which 
its dark snuff-brown spores distinguish it. Like that fungus, this 
is also probably a mere state of some species of Hypomyces. 
Morchella angusticeps. 
Plate 1, figs 19-21. 
Pileus narrowly conical or oblong-conical, acute or subobtuse, 1 to 
2 in. long, its diameter at the base scarcely exceeding that of the 
stem, pale-buff or cream-colored, adnate, sometimes a little curved, 
the coste longitudinal, anastomosing or connected by transverse 
veins ; stem subequal, hollow, furfuraceous, even or sometimes 
marked byrregular longitudinal ridges and furrows, whitish, about 
equal to the pileus in length ; asci cylindrical ; spores elliptical, 
yellowish, .0008 to .001 in. long, .0005 to .0007 broad. 
Borders of woods and open places. Albany and Karner. April 
and May. Edible. 
This morel is perhaps too closely related to Morchella conica Pers., 
but if that species is correctly represented in Mycographia, plate 81, 
fig. 315, our plant is easily distinguished by its much more narrow 
pileus, which scarcely exceeds the stem in diameter. The para- 
physes of that species are also represented as filiform, and are de- 
scribed (1. c. p. 182) as thickened above. In our plant I find no 
such paraphyses, but instead of them there are oblong or subclavate
