76 Botany. 
Two small specimens were collected at Glacier Valley (256), which may 
be referred to this species with some doubt. The thallus is small, 
cinereous, with lacerate and fringed margins and fibrillose beneath, es- 
pecially near the margin. The orbicular apothecia are for the most part 
simple but are, in some cases, aggregated but not at ail plicate. The 
specimens cannot well be referred to Gyrophora Wenckii, J. Miiller, 
nor is the thallus that of the typical U. anthracina. In the latter re- 
spect it agrees better with U. cylmdrica ( L.) Delis., and it may per- 
haps be a form of that species in which the apothecia have not become 
plicate.

Fucus sp. 
Imperfect specimens of a species of Fucus were collected near Cape 
Acland and one specimen also from Cape York, which are interesting 
from the locality in which they occurred. The specimens are about four 
inches long, with a prominent midrib, but no air-bladders. Unfortunately 
the conceptacles are very young, and it is not possible to say whether the 
species is dicecious or not. The general habit is that of the group of 
F. vesiculosus rather than P. evanescens as limited by J. Agardh. 
The only fungus collected was a single specimen of a Lyeoperdon, 
of which the basal portion only was preserved, and it is only possible 
to say that the species is probably L. ocelatum. The locality is Cape 
York. There were besides some fragments of dead plants, which could 
not be identified, on which was a fungus which agreed well with Py- 
renopbora ebrysospora (Niessl.) Sacc.
