338 ANNALS OF THE MISSOURI BOTANICAL GARDEN 
Specimens examined: 
Exsiecati: Rabenhorst, Fung. Eur., 208 (in Kew Herb.). 
Sweden: L. Romell, 50. 
South Carolina: Ravenel (in Curtis Herb., 2982). 
C. crispus Fr., sometimes regarded as a variety of C. sinu- 
osus, was reported from New England, Sprague, by Berkeley & 
Curtis, Grevillea 1: 147, but the specimen is not satisfactory 
for study. I do not, therefore, like to include C. crispus as 
one of our species. 
10. C. calyculus (B. & C.) Burt, n. comb. 
Stereum calyculus Berk. & Curtis, Hooker's Jour. Bot. and 
Kew Gard. Misc. 1: 238. 1849; Grevillea 1: 161. 1873. 
Type: type and cotype in Kew Herb. and Curtis Herb. 
respectively. 
Fructifications somewhat fleshy-membranaceous; pileus thin, 
deeply cup-shaped, minutely tomentose, drying Saccardo’s 
umber, opaque; stem apparently hollow, cream buff, attenuated 
below, tomentose at the base; hymenium even or slightly venose, 
cream buff; spores slightly yellowish under the microscope, 
even, 8 x 6 y. 
Fructifications 2-3 em. high; pileus 4-8 mm. broad; stem 
1 em. long, 1-2 mm. thick. 
On ground in damp shady woods. North and South Caro- 
lina. August and September. 
Upon moistening, the type in Kew Herbarium proved too 
soft and fleshy and the hymenium too waxy for a Stereum. The 
sections have the structure of Craterellus. The species is near 
C. sinuosus and may prove to be a small form of this when 
ample material gives more complete knowledge of the species, 
but, for the present, I regard C. calyculus as a distinct species. 
I refer to C. calyculus a collection made by Professor Atkinson 
at Blowing Rock, North Carolina, the rough-dried and cespitose 
specimens of which show a somewhat tubiform pileus and 
spores 7-8 x 43 и. 
Specimens examined: 
North Carolina: Blowing Rock, G. F. Atkinson, 4200. 
South Carolina: Santee River, Ravenel, Curtis Herb., 1716 
(the type and собуре in Kew Herb. and Curtis Herb. 
respectively).
