Pileus lobed, deflexed, sometimes gyroso-undulate, smooth, 
rufous-cinnamon, or purple-brown, much paler and tomentose 
beneath, margin adhering firmly to the stem, becoming undulated ; 
stem thickened above and below, stuffed, then hollow, smooth, 
villous, pallid, or purplish white, often here and there irregularly 
lacunose; asci cylindrical; sporidia ellipsoidvate, binucliate, 
*018-’022 x ’008 mm. ; paraphyses septate, often twice or thrice 
branched, apices pyriform, coloured. 
This species has occurred both in Scotland and England. The 
English specimens found in Norfolk were growing chiefly on wood, 
varying in size from 3in. to 8in. in height, and in considerable 
quantity.

Cups hemispherical, greyish-brown, minutely squamulose ; disc

125. Peziza (Tarzetta, Che.) muralis. Sow. Eng. Fung., t. 251 
Scattered, stipes short, expanding upwards into the turbinate

plane; asci cylindraceo-clavate ; sporidia 8, ovate, ’014 x ’008

By some oversight this species has been omitted from “ English 
Flora,” “ Berkeley’s Outlines,” and “ Cooke’s Handbook.” By the 
kind permission of the Rev. M. J. Berkeley we have been per- 
mitted to examine Sowerby’s original specimen, and have given 
the result of the measurement of the sporidia above.

Scattered or crowded, hemisphserical, sessile, fleshy, somewhat 
verrucose, dark brown, margin thick ; disc concave, black-brown ; 
asci cylindrical ; sporidia ovate, asperate, with one or two large 
nuclei, 016-’018 X 009-’01 mm. ; paraphyses linear, septate, 
rather clavate at the summits.
