A very fine spec The perithecia are sometimes so closely 
crowded as to pde somewhat irregular from lateral pressure, 
and to suggest an affinity with the genus Ay ypory lon. The 
perithecia are just a little more depressed round the pa apillate 
ostiolum than in the typical form, otherwise there is no

mediate between the Paper Hypomyces and Hypocrea. Agreein 
with the former in the somewhat byssoid and mealy, thin subi- 
culum in which the numerous perithecia are completely immersed, 
but conforming with Hypocrea in the narrowly c arara asci 
containing eight spores, each of which divides md two portions 
at an early stage of devcloparétii thus presenting the appearance
