44 Thirty-second Report on the State Museum. 



Sporotrichum sulfureum Grev. 



Fallen oak leaves. North Greenbush. June. 



Sporotrichum virescens Lk. 



Decaying wood. Buffalo. Clinton. 



Sporotrichum alutaceum Schw. 



Decaying elm wood. Bethlehem. Oct. 



Sporotrichum larvatum n. sp. 



Tufts confluent, dense, soft, white or yellowish, coating the whole matrix ; 

 threads very slender, simple or branched ; spores abundant, minute, globose, 

 .00008 -.00012' in diameter. 



Dead larvae under alder bushes. Adirondack Mountains. July. 



This species is remarkable for its peculiar habitat. In some specimens 

 nearly the whole mass of flocci appears to have been transformed into spores, 

 in which cases the surface is quite pulverulent. 



Acremonium flexuosum n. sp. (Plate I, figs. 16-18.) 



Effused, thin, soft, woolly, white, sometimes tinged with yellow or cream- 

 color ; threads branched, the branches widely diverging, sometimes oppo- 

 site, narrowed and flexuous toward the tips and armed with alternate pointed 

 spicules; spores oval or elliptical, colorless, .0005-.0008' long, .0003'- 

 .0005 broad. 



Decaying wood. Griffins, Delaware County. Sept. 

 Apparently allied to A. album, but distinct from it by the flexuous termi- 

 nal portions of the branches and their alternate pointed teeth or spicules. 



Sepedonium cervinum Dittm. 



Parasitic on Peziza macropus. Brewerton. Sept. 



In the typical form the spores are said to be yellowish-brown. In our 

 specimens they are of a dull flesh color, globose, rough, .0005'-.0006' in 

 diameter, with a short blunt appendage. It seems to be worthy of separa- 

 tion as a variety at least, and may be called S. cervinum var. subincarna- 

 tum. 



Sepedonium brunneum n. sp. 



Effused, pulverulent, brown ; spores globose, «rough, .0008'-.001' in 

 diameter. 



Decaying fungi. Gansevoort. Aug. 



The snuff-brown color and large spores destitute of an appendage are the 

 distinctive features of this species. 



Morchella angusticeps n. sp. (Plate I, figs. 19-21.) 



Pileus oblong-conical and subobtuse or narrowly conical and acute, adnate 

 to the stem, one to two inches high, and about half as broad at the base ; ribs 

 longitudinal, here and there anastomosing or connected by transverse veins ; 

 stem subequal, hollow, whitish, furfuraceous without and within, even or rarely
