Sphaeria sphecocephala , Klotzsch, in Herb. Hook., Kew ; 
this name is adopted by Berkeley — On some Entomogenous 
Sphaeriae ; Lond. Journ. Bot., vol. ii, p. 205 (1843) — with 
the following explanation : f The name given to it by 
Klotzsch with the authority of Kiinze attached to it, is clearly 
a wrong transcription of Kiinze’s name in Myc. Hefte, for 
a somewhat analogous form of Sp. militaris ; viz. S. sphaero- 
cephala . It is, however, so good that I have retained it.’ 
The word sphecophila was introduced by Berkeley in his 
mention of the species in Fung. Cuben., no. 751, presumably 
by mistake, and this name has been taken up by Saccardo — 
Syll. ii, no. 5015.
