26. Haplotrichum. Pedicles septate, terminating in con- 

 tinuous, solitary, sporiferous head. 



27. Actinodadium. Pedicles septate, umbellately 

 branched at summit ; spores accumulated at tips of 

 branches. 



28. Botryiosporium. Pedicles septate, with short spine- 

 like branchlets above, spirally arranged, and terminating 

 in four or five short points which support globular heads 

 of spores. 



* * Spores septate. 



29. Arthrobotrys. Pedicles simple, septate, with joints 

 swollen at intervals and clothed with spines bearing didy- 

 mous spores in globular heaps. 



5. Family Sepedoniei. Mycelium filamentous, spores 

 usually heaped together on the mycelium, and apparently 

 springing out of it, without erect pedicles. 



1. Artotrogus. Filaments creeping, persistent; spores 

 from middle of filaments, simple, at length free, spinous. 



2. Sepedonium. Filaments woolly, septate, evanescent; 

 spores globose, connate, scabrous, stipitate, solitary, at 

 length heaped together. 



3. Fussisporium. Spores fusiform or cylindrical, glued 

 in heaps on the gelatinous matrix. 



4. Epoehnium. Spores heaped, oblong, apiculate, sep- 

 tate, adnate to the matrix, interwoven with effused, 

 tangled, slender filaments of mycelium. 



5. Psilonia. Spores simple, pellucid, not glued together, 

 at first covered with conveying filaments of mycelium. 



6. Monotospora Eutophyte. Filaments creeping, evan- 

 escent ; spores globose, solitary, terminal, at length free. 



7. Asterophora. Filaments creeping (over larger fungi) ; 

 spores on short ramules, vesicular, stellate. 



8. Acrospeira. Filaments creeping, ramuli branched, 

 the fertile terminating in a spiral coil of about three 

 joints, one of which swells into a rough-coated spore.
