tiny apothecia, on closely branching podetia; C. grayi, f. sim- 

 plex, as now distinguished by Sandstede, from the much 

 similar, outwardly at least, C. chlorophaea, by the red reaction 

 with paraphenylenediamine; and C. subcariosa, f. evolula. 



Corner of Siasconset Road and lane to Gibbs Pond : a 

 novelty here was C. rangiferina, f. patula, with unusually tall 

 podetia, strikingly upright and massed together; C. tenuis, C. 

 sylvatica, C. Boryi, f. reticulata, fertile; C.furcata, var. racemosa, 

 growing amidst the grasses in sandy soil, browned by ex- 

 posure to the sun, quite a different habitat than those in which 

 I find it in the Hudson Highlands. 



On the sandy hills three miles west of Nantucket Village, 

 overlooking Nantucket Sound : C. tenuis, C. mitis, C. rangi- 

 ferina, and C. Boryi, f. reticulata, much of it fruiting. 



Folger Hill, on the moraine three miles east of Nantucket 

 Village: C. coniocraea, f. truncata, an old friend of hardwood 

 forests inland; C. pleurota, f. decorata, small and delicately 

 pretty; C. cristatella, F. Beauvoisii, vestita, and well defined f. 

 scyphulifera, one of the most beautiful forms of this scarlet 

 fruited species; C. squamosa, f. levicorticata, m. epiphylla, this 

 modification being new to me; also the commoner m. rigida; as 

 well as m. pseudocrispata, and m., pityrea, which latter Dr. 

 Sandstede calls the more densely fruited modifications of f. 

 levicorticata; C. Grayi, f. carpophora; C. furcata, var. racemosa; 

 C. tenuis, C. clavulifera, ff. nudicaulis and pleurocarpa; C. 

 caroliniana, f. dilatata. 



Shawkeno, a knob of the moraine east of Nantucket Village; 

 C. uncialis, C. tenuis, C. mitis, C. Boryi, ff. lacunosa and 

 reticulata, the latter fertile. 



Miacomet Pond on the south side of the island : C. cristatella, 

 f. scyphulifera, this colony being almost all in this form with 

 its pretty pseudo-cups; C. Boryi, ff. reticulata and cribrosa, 

 both fertile; C. rangiferina, C.furcata, var. racemosa; C. tenuis, 

 C. uncialis, C. Grayi and C. macilenta, f. styracella.
