About + inch high when full-grown, stipitate, the stem 
branching out or dividing into several heads, which form cups 
resembling the genus Ditiola or Tympanis; when young and 
unbranched, resembling Solenia. The cups are often proliferous, 
producing smaller cups on their surface, of a bright apricot-co- 
lour, but whitish towards the margin. A figure of the proliferous 
state will appear in the forthcoming number of the Linnzan
