14. Peziza anomala (Pers. Syn. p. 656). 
Has. On dead bark, Archer. 
A form which approaches very near to Solenia. Where the cups are eaten off by insects, the appearance is 
exactly that of a Polyporus. 
15. Peziza epitephra (Berk.); minuta, alba, hemispherica vel subglobosa, insigniter cava, floccis 
crispis fuscis intertextis oriunda. 
Haz. On the under side of fallen leaves, Archer. 
White, minute, hemispherical or subglobose, hollow, scattered on a uniform brown stratum consisting of even, 
curled, brown threads. 
16. Peziza araneosa (Berk.) ; cupulis primum subglobosis demum ex hemispherico expansis ses- 
silibus extus araneosis, floccis subtus super matricem repentibus oriundis, hymenio luteo-aurantiaco, spo- 
ridiis curvulis multinucleatis. 
Has. On dead wood, Archer. 
Minute, at first globose, then hemispherical, with the border inflected, then expanded, white and byssoid exter- 
nally, attached to the matrix by radiating byssoid flocci. Hymenium pale-orange. Asci clavate. — Sporidia linear, 
curved, containing six or more nuclei, ¿37 inch long. ; 
17. Peziza firma (Pers. Syn. p. 658). 
Has. On dead wood, Archer. 
18. Peziza byssigena (Berk.) ; ochracea, cupula concava, stipite elongato cylindrico subtiliter 
pruinoso e floccis intertextis radiantibus oriundo. 
Has. On a dead stick, Archer. 
Cup 2 a line broad, hyaline, ochraceous, regular, concave, subtremelloid, supported by a stout cylindrical stem 
about 1 line high, minutely pruinose, and springing from matted, radiating, pallid flocci. sci clavate. Sporidia 
subelliptic or oblong, saya inch long.—Allied to P. lutescens, Hedwig. 
19. Peziza ceratina (Berk.); turbinata, stipitata, glabra, pallide fulvo-cornea, hymenio plano mar- 
ginato. 
Haz. On leaves of Eucalyptus, Archer. 
Minute, not half a line high, of a clear, tawny horn-colour, turbinate, stipitate, smooth. Hymenium flat, with 
a narrow border. Asci rather large. Sporidia oblongo-clavate, pointed, 14s inch long.— This species is allied to 
P. clavellata, Desm., and P. eyathoidea, but more especially to Helotium titubans, Mont., a Chilian species, from all 
which it is quite distinct. The hymenium is perfectly flat when moistened. 
20. Peziza omnivirens (Berk.); «ruginosa, cupula breviter 
plano, sporidiis amplis. 
Haz. On dead wood: Leith Creek, August, Archer. 
Cup subturbinate, 2 lines across, dark verdigris-green. Hymenium plane. Asci lineari-clavate. Sporidia uni- 
serial, oblong, obtuse at either end, subeymbiform, dee inch long. —This bears the ‘same relation to P. versi- 
formis that P. eruginea, B., does to P. eruginosa. It is more regular, and a sporidia much larger. In P. ver- 
siformis the sporidia are 3355 of an inch long, and much narrower in proportion. 
21. Peziza grata (Berk.); cupula plana hyalina marginata breviter stipitata subaurantiaca, 
stipite pallidiori cylindrico guandogue compresso. 
Has. On dead, exposed wood, Archer. 
Cup 3 line across, concave, hyaline, of a dull-orange. Stem 
stipitata subturbinata, hymenio 
paler, compressed. Sporidia fusiform, g^; of an
