Hypocrea (Clintoniella) epiphylla, sp. n. (Plate 323, figs. 



27-30). Carnosa, hemispherica, sordide ochracea, intus albida, 

 tomento albo basi circumdata ; peritheciis ellipticis, ostiolo puncti- 

 formi brunneo vix prominulo instructis ; ascis cylindraeeis ; sporis 

 lL:e.;ri-fnsiformibus, aseptatis, 50-55 x 1-5 /x. 



Hab. In foliis Dieffenhachice. Morne Coclion. 



Growing on both surfaces of the leaf, scattered, 1-3 lines across. 

 Known from allied species by the continuous or aseptate elongato- 

 fnsiform spores. 



Bertia macrospora, sp. n. (Plate 321, figs. 9-12). Peritheciis 

 gregariis, srepe connatis, superficialibus vel semiemersis, ostiolo 

 demum aperto, nigris, rugulosis, glabris, carbonaceis, circiter 

 0*5 mm. lat. ; ascis clavatis, vertice acutatis, octosporis, epara- 

 l)iiysatis, sporis subdistichis vel inordinatis, fusiformibus, rectis vel 

 parum curvati3, hyalinis, medio 1-septatis, ad septum constrictis, 



28-30 x 6-7 /x. 



Hab. In ramis dejectis. Near the Government House (900 ft.). 



Densely gregarious, forming more or less circular patches 

 2-4 mm. across. Allied to B. italica Sacc, but known by the less 

 conspicuously rugulose perithecia, the acute apex of the ascus, and 

 the much broader spores. 



Spharostilbe cinnabarina Tul. Richmond Valley. 



Chondrioderma diffonne R. Richmond Valley. 



Diachaa leucopoda R. Morne Cochon. 



Areyria. Species indeterminable, as the specimen had been 

 preserved in spirit. Morne Cochon (1200 ft.). 



The following species were collected in Grenada by Mr. G. 



Sessile ; 



Murray during the Eclipse Expedition, August, 1886 : 

 Lenzites protracta Fr. 



Schizophyllum Murray i 



pileo flabelliformi, inciso-lobato, coriaceo, rigido, sordide ochraceo, 

 tomento brevi, molli obtecto ; lamellis radiantibus bifidis, villosis, 

 angustis, rabentibus vel brunneolis. Sporis vinosis, globosis, 

 echinulatis, 9-10 /x diam. 





Hab. Ad truncos. Ins. Grenada. 



A very fine and distinct species, 2-3 in. broad, margin subentire 



or laciniato-incised, thin and soft, becoming rigid when dry. Most 



closely allied to S. commune, but at once distinguished from this 

 and every other described species by the large, globose, echinulato 

 vinous spores. This species is included in the Brit. Mus. Herbarium, 

 under S. commune, from Brazil and New Caledonia.
