CRYPTOGAMIA ALGJE 877 



This produces two kinds of ftalks, about an inch 

 and a half or two inches high, both covered 

 with a grey farinaceous powder. The fiiril: is 

 finiple and fubulate, erecl or curv'd, of various 

 fizcs, the largefl; as big as a goofc-quill. 



The other is fmalleft at the bafc, and encreafcs 

 gradually to the top, which ends in a dented 

 cup, the dents tipp'd with very minute reduilli 

 brown tubercles. 



Sometimes the fubulate flalks are a little branched 

 and both befct with cruftaceous leaves. 



It feems to be only a variety of the foregoing •, 

 and therefore, tho' in compliance with authors 

 we have described many Lichens in this divifion, 

 we are inclined to think there are nor above 

 three or four at moil that have diftincl ipccihc 

 limits.
