78 FUNGUS-FLOEA. 



dividing into numerous irregular branches that become 

 flattened upwards and cut at the apex into acute branchlets ; 

 spores pale ochraceous, subglobose. apiculate, 10 x 8 //,. 



Clavaria cristata, Grev., Scot. Or. PI., t. 190 ; Cke., Hdbk., 

 n. 966 ; Stev., Brit. Fung. ii. p. 292. 



Clavaria fuliginea. Pers. 



In woods. Forming tufts 12 in. high, known by the 

 flattened branches being divided into several pointed 

 branchlets at the tips like a stag's horn ; this last character 

 is the only one that separates the present species from 

 C. coralloides. 



Clavaria Krombholzii. Fr. 



Tufted, fragile, white, shining, even, sparingly branched, 

 branches more or less compressed, acute ; spores white, 

 broadly elliptical, 10-11 X 7-8 p.. 



Clavaria Krombholzii, Fr., Hym. Eur. 669; Stev., Brit. 

 Fung. 293. 



In pastures. Somewhat resembling C. rugosa, differs in 

 being brittle and even, not wrinkled, 1-3 in. high. 



Clavaria rugosa. Bull. 



Eather tough, whitish, thickened upwards, simple or with 

 a few irregular obtuse branches, longitudinally rugose ; 

 spores white, irregularly globose, 8-10 p. 



Clavaria rugosa, Berk., Outl., t. 18, f. 3 ; Cke., Hdbk., n. 

 967 ; Stev., Brit. Fung. ii. p. 293. 



In woods. Solitary or gregarious, 2-4 in. high, up to 

 in. thick, white or dingy ; simple and club-shaped or 

 variously branched, tips blunt. Distinguished by the dis- 

 tinct, irregular longitudinal wrinkles. 



Clavaria Kunzei. Fries. 



Tufted, shining white, rather fragile, very much branched 

 from the base; branches long, frequently forked, of about 

 equal height, axils compressed ; spores white, broadly ellip- 

 tical, 9-11 x 8 /x. 



Clavaria Kunzei, Fries., Hym. Eur., p. 699 ; Stev., Brit. 

 Fung. ii. 293. 



In woods. Tufts 1-2 in. high, distinguished amongst the 

 white species by the numerous, crowded, erect, repeatedly 

 forked equal branches of about equal length.
