Distinguished by the squamulose character, and not to be confused 
with C. sqgwamosa, in which the podetia and squamules are somewhat 
furfuraceous and the scyphi perforated. The blackening of the podetia 
is not constant. Form pleolepidea, with small ascyphous squamulose 
podetia, dark-coloured and white-punctate, is evidently a growth form 
of the variety, though it has been referred by Wainio to C. squamosa 
(Clad. Univ. ii. p. 137). 
Hab. On the ground in heaths, and on rotten wood.— Distr. Some- 
what scarce in 8.W. and N. England, in S. and Central Scotland and 
among the Grampians.—B. M. Near Hurstpierpoint, Sussex; Dart- 
moor, Devon; Malvern, Worcestershire; Burton Head, Cleveland, 
Yorkshire; Pentland Hills, near Edinburgh; Sidlaw Hills, Forfar- 
shire; Glen Quoich, Glen Callater and Morrone, Braemar, Aberdeen- 
shire. 
Subsp. trachyna Nyl. ex Norrl. in Not. Sillsk. Faun. & FI. 
Fenn. Forh. xiii. p. 319 (1873).—Podetia slender, cylindrical, 
usually smooth, greyish-white, areolate and tomentose in the 
interstices, proliferous at the margins of the denticulate radiate 
scyphi, forming several tiers of short podetia. Apothecia minute, 
brown.—Cromb. in Grevillea xi. p. 113 & Monogr. i. p. 147; 
f. trachyna Floerk. Clad. Comm. p. 44 (1828); Mudd Brit. Clad. 
p. 18. Beeomyces trachynus Ach. Meth. Lich. p. 348 (1803). 
The blackening at the base of the podetia is scarcely evident, but 
the corticate areole with the tomentose interstices show the aflinity 
with the species. 
Hab. On heathy ground amongst moss in upland regions.—Distr. 
Rare among the Scottish Grampians.—B. M. Cairntoul and Ben- 
naboord, Braemar, Aberdeenshire. 
Form subfurcata Nyl. ex Norrl. tom. cit. p. 320.—Podetia 
elongate, ascyphous, branched, fastigiate, the areol giving a 
granular unequal surface, brownish. Apothecia not seen.—
