Harkness, H. W.— 'Kew Species of California Fungi ;" in Bulletin 

 of the California Academy of Sciences, No. 1, Feb. 1884. 



Dr. Harkness here describes seventy-one species and proposes four 

 new genera each including one specie^, as follows : 



CAMPOSPOKIUM, Hk. 



[JEtym. Campe : larva, from the resemblance of the spore to the 

 larva of Danais Archippus.) 



Hypha brown, flexuous, septate. Spores 1 — 2, attached by slender 

 pedicels to the angles of the apex, transversely pluriseptate with filiform 

 setse springing from the apex. 



Camposporium antennatum, Hk. 



Hyphse septate, flexuous, brown ; spores 1—2, cylindrical, pale olive 

 brown, 7—13 septate, attached to the apical angles of the hyphse by fili- 

 form spiral pedicels; ultimate cells hyaline, the upper one bearing two, 

 sometimes one or three, filiform setae i— i as long as the spore, 70—94 x 

 10 /J'. On decaying bark of "Eucalyptus globulus, December.
