specimens under this name in the Schweinitz’s herbarium, we must 
refer them to Fez. rubella as a variety. Hitherto we have failed to 
find any good features by which to distinguish P. rubella from P. 
vinosa^ at least in some of their forms. 
Feziza (Mollisia) vulgazis. F7\ 
On old oak stump. 
Feziza atrovizens. Pers. 
On decorticated maple. (Sporidia immature.) 
Feziza (Mollisia) atzocinezea. Coohe.

Feziza (IKEollisia) subatra. C. Sf P. 
On Solidago. No. 2543. 
'Feziza (Mollisia) Astezicola, pro. tern. 
On stems of Aster. No. 2502. 
As only two cups of the Feziza could be found on the specimens 
sent us for examination, we can give no description, and no 
information beyond the fact that we do not regard it as absolutely 
identical with Feziza Artemisiae^ Lasch., to which it was referred. 
This circumstance gives us the opportunity of protesting against 
the supposition that any fragment is sufficient for the determina- 
tion or description of a species. The opinion seems to be very 
current that this is the case ; whereas no single specimen, be it 
ever so good, is unimpeachable, and to describe a plant satis- 
factorily a good series of specimens should be examined. 
Feziza (lYEollisia) stictoidea. C. ^ E. 
Sessilis, erumpens, sparsa. Cupulis minutis, tectis, demum 
emergentibus, atrobrunneis ; disco pallido ; ascis clavatis; spor- 
idiis arcte fusoideis, nucleatis. 
On Juncus. 
Very minute, cups i^am. broad; margin longitudinally 
connivent when dry, and retracted, hence it resembles a minute 
Stictis ; sporidia '016 X '003 mm. ,(P1. 96, fig. 37.) No. 2556. 
Feziza (Fatellea) compressa. P. 
On maple wood. No. 25545. 
Var. Rubicola. On Rubus. 
Not differing apparently, but fragment so small, and so few of 
the asci are mature, that a definite judgment can scarcely be pro- 
nounced. No. 2554.

On Artemisia. No. 2617.
