Stilbum madidum n. sjx 



Stems numerous, sometimes caespitose, .02 to .03 in. long, white 

 or whitish, glabrous ; head minute, subglobose, pellucid-white ; 

 spores oblong, often slightly narrowed toward one end, .0005 to 

 •0006 in. long, about .00016 broad. 



Sap-moistened cut surface of a birch stump, Betula Uitea. Lake 

 Pleasant. August. 



The mycelium permeates a gelatinous stratum which over- 

 spreads the wood. The species is distinguished from S. macro- 

 ca/rpum by its white capitulum and more narrow spores. 



Coremium glaucum Fi\ 



Fallen acorns. Shokan. September. 



This is considered by some to be a mere form of Penicillium 

 glaucxtra^ from which it differs in having a stem composed of 

 compacted filaments. 



Fusarium viticolum Thum. 



Grapes. Menands. September. 



Our specimens differ from the type in the smaller superficial 

 sporodochia and in the longer and more acutely pointed spores. 

 The}^ constitute a new variety if not a distinct species. For the 

 present I call them var. uvicolum. Sporodochia minute, numer- 

 ous, gregarious, superficial, depressed, flesh-colored; spores 

 narrowly fusiform, generally curved, acute or acuminate, three 

 to five septate, .0016 to .002 in. long. 



Lachnella citrina n. sp. 



Receptacle minute, .02 to .03 in. broad, sessile or with a very 

 short stem, villose-tomentose, citrine-yellow, the hymenium 

 yellow inclining to orange, generally concealed, when dry, by 

 the connivent margin; asci subcylindrical, about .003 in. long; 

 paraphyses filiform, equaling, or a little surpassing the asci; 

 spores oblong or subfusiform, .0004 to .0005 in. long, .00016 

 broad. 



Bark of chestnut trees. Shokan. September. 



In some instances the marginal hairs of the cups are white.
