On the ground among moss, especially species of Polytrichum. 
The synonyms and quotations of exsiccati — so far as the speci- 
mens present in the Kew sets are concerned — are identical, and to 
my mind represent Peziza poly trichi, Schum. Peziza vivida , Nyl., 
as represented in Syd., Myc. March, No. 277, and the British 
specimens from Rannoch only differ from the typical P. poly trichi, 
as here interpreted, by the somewhat longer stem-like base ; the 
spores and internal structure are identical. The fact that in 
P. polytrichi the spores remain for a long time smooth, and the 
external down to a greater or less extent disappears with age, has 
probably caused confusion. I can find no specimens agreeing with 
the fungus figured as Peziza poly trichi by Cooke in “Mycographia,” 
fig. 50, and described by Phillips in Brit. Disc., p. 87.
