258 FLORA OF TASMANIA. [Pungi, by M. J. Berkeley. 
Gen. XXII. CRATERELLUS, Pr. 
Carnosi. Hymenium distinctum, immutabile, demum subrugosum. 
The species of this genus are analogous to Cantharellus, but belong to a different series. The only Tasmanian 
species looks like a stipitate Merulius corium. (Name from kparnp, a goblet.) 
1. Craterellus Pusio (Berk.); aurantiacus, pileo laterali convexo, stipite levi sursum incrassato, 
hymenio rugoso venoso. 
Has. Amongst Moss, Archer. 
Orange. Pileus 2-3 lines across, convex, lateral. Stem about 2 lines high, incrassated above. Hymenium 
concave, darker than the pileus, rugoso-venose.—A small but very pretty species. 
Gen. XXIII. THELEPHORA, 77. 
E carnoso rigescentes, subcoriacei; Aymenio cum pileo anodermeo concreto, ramoso-costato papillosove. 
In the more typical species the hymenium is various, papillary, or venose, but in some it is nearly even. The 
absence of any cuticle is an important character affecting the form, which is usually less definite than in Stereum. 
(Name Goin, a pap, and pepo, to bear.) 
1. Thelephora riccioidea (Berk.) ; resupinata, arcte affixa, radiato-ramosa, pallida. 
Has. On the bare soil: New Norfolk, Gunn. 
Three inches or more across, closely fixed to the soil, radiating, branched, dirty-white; divisions dilated above, 
convex or concave.— This rather coarse species differs from every other with which I am acquainted. At first sight 
it somewhat resembles Thelephora sebacea, but it is essentially branched. 
2. Thelephora Sowerbeii (Berk.).—Helvella pannosa, Sow. ¢. 155. 
Has. On the ground, Gunn, Archer, etc. 
3. Thelephora Archeri (Derk.); dichotoma, stipitibus deorsum connatis, ramis compressis sursum 
dilatatis ochraceis, apicibus acutis brunneis. (Tas. CLXXXIIL Fig. 2.) 
Has. On the ground, Archer. 
About 12 inch high, dichotomous. Stems springing from a white, downy mycelium, combined below into a solid 
cylindrical mass, 2 lines thick, branched two or three times, forked, ochraceous; tips acute, brown.— PLATE 
CLXXXIII. Fig. 2; plant, nat. size; 5, portion, magnified. 
4. Thelephora sebacea (Fr. Ep. p. 542). 
Has. Running over Jungermannie, etc., J. D. H. 
From the minuteness of the plants round which it grows, the specimens have a different — from those 
of Europe, but it seems to be the same species. 
5. Thelephora viridis (Berk.) ; resupinata, effusa, immarginata, tomentoso-mollis, viridis, hymenio 
granulato. 
Has. On dead wood, Archer. 
Effused, about an inch broad, dull-green, of a soft tomentose substance. Hymenium covered with minute gra- 
nules, not visible to the naked eye. In colour it resembles Hydnum viride. 
Gen. XXIV. STEREUM, Fr. 
Hymenium coriaceum, sat crassum, cum strato intermedio pilei dermatini concretum, leve, semper im- 
mutatum et contiguum, persistens.
