Seaver: Studies in Colorado Fungi 



59 



were made in Colorado, at Tolland and in Geneva Creek 

 Canyon. The plants collected in Colorado are as large as 5 mm. 

 in diameter, a little larger than the Iowa specimens, but spore 

 characters are identical. Cotype material of Crouania asperella 

 Rehm has been examined and found to be the same. While the 

 species has been commonly collected and distributed in European 

 exsiccati, the only American specimens seen, with the exception 

 of our own collections, were those distributed by Mr. Ellis in his 

 exsiccati. Peziza modesta Karst. has also been reported from 

 Minnesota by Miss D. Hone. For diagnostic characters and illus- 

 tration, see Iowa Discomycetes.
