(Peters, No. 5208). 
Specimens from Sckweinitz, also Berkeley’s type specimens 
examined. 
Soft and inclined to be gelatinous when moist, rigid and some- 
what pellucid when dry ; the margin is usually incurved when dry, 
leaving a narrow slit or often a triangular opening. The margin 
is irregular, due to the projecting tufts of hairs, as is also the out- 
side for some distance down ; the amorphous lumps adhering to 
and probably secreted by the tufts of liyphse give the appearance 
of being “ externally clothed with sugar-like granules.” 
It would be interesting to ascertain whether Peziza conchella , 
Scliw., is identical with the above. However, there is no material 
at Kew from Schweinitz ; perhaps some American mycologist will 
settle this point. 
Peziza chlora, Schtvein., Syn. Fun. Car. Sup., p. 96, No. 1235 (an 
extract from Soc. Nat. Cur. Lips., 1822). 
Gregarious, sessile, soft, and rather fleshy, at first globose and 
closed, then expanding, but remaining slightly concave ; usual 
colour of the entire fungus pale yellowisli-green, but sometimes 
passing through pale yellow to orange ; externally glabrous but 
minutely wrinkled, 1-2 m.m. across, hypothecium and excipulum 
composed of closely interwoven hyplice, these become tinted 
and thicker where they form the cortex; asci narrowly clavate, 
apex rounded, base narrowed into a slender, crooked pedicel, 
8*sporcd ; spores obliquely 1-seriate, hyaline, continuous, sausage- 
shaped, often slightly curved, 5-6 x 1-5 /x ; paraphvses hyaline, 
slender, slightly clavate at the tip.
