Aug. 2nd, 1905. It consists of several pulvinate ethalia about 
2 mm. broad; the walls of the convoluted sporangia are perforate 
as in Enteridium, producing a network with rounded meshes; a 
convex membranous cap, mottled with poe granules, forms 
the apex of each sporangium. B.M. 2011. A second be is 
on fallen leaves. Mifureyama, Seto, Kii. Janua ary, 1 The 
wthalia are composed of convoluted sporangia of the usual type; 
the sporangium walls are densely strewn with clusters of dark plas- 
modic granules. B. 2012. A third is var. simplea Rex, on 
dead teeta, Inyénata aki, Nachi, Kii. Aug. 11th, 1903. . It 
consists of several clusters of cylindrical sporangia, each about 
1 mm. long 0°3 mm. broad; the number of individuals in a 
cluster varies from about six to forty; they are either closely

convex membranous caps are beset wi ark plasmodic granules, 
arranged in a net- rag ‘awe such as is often seen in Cribraria

*Tubulina fragiformis Pers. ‘On rotting halle prey cuspidata,” 
.M. Isaida, Kii. July 8th, 1905. The clusters of sporangia vary in 
size; some are pulvinate with the usual contour; others are small, 
and have a stalk-like base; spores 5 to6y. It suggests an inter- 
mediate form between T. fragiformis and 1’ stipitata Rost. B.M. 2015. 
T. stipitata Rost. There are two specimens of this species. 
One “on rotting stump of camphor-tree” K.M., Isaida, Ku, July 8th, 
1905—consists of small clusters on long common stalks, varying 
in ickinome cuits to the number of the s sporangia. -M.

has subellipsoid sporangia, arranged in numerous bunches ‘of aren 
or more on comparatively slendet ie, but crowded together so 
to form large cushions. B.M "

*Areyria albida Pers, There are four specimens, very similar in 
character, from Nachi, 1903 and 1904. The sporangia are ovoid, 
and shortly stalked, white or grey in A iaeds ; the threads of the 
copilliticm: are closely warted, as in most frequent English 
gatherings. B.M. 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024.
