but the apothecia are for tbe most part vertically split on one side and 
this seems to prevent putting it in that genus.” 
This is according to the description very close to 0. umbrina. I 
have not seen material of the latter species. The spores in the speci¬ 
mens left at Wisconsin appear to be roughened. Bresadola’s figures 
(Fungi Trid. pi. 180 ) represent the Wisconsin specimens perfectly as to 
shape, those of Boudier (leones Myc. pi. 330 ) less correctly. Madison, 
September 1903; Blue Mounds, August 1903. 
Otidea leporina (Batsch.) Fckl. 
Watertown, August 1903 (Marquette), Madison, October 190-7, Devil’s 
Lake, July 1907; Blue Mounds, August 1909. 
Otidea onotica (Pers.) Fckl. 
Blue Mounds, July 1905; Parfrey’s glen, August 1907; Devil’s 
Lake, August 1907. 
Otidea pleurota (Phil.) Sacc. 
The spores are 17x8.5 mic., with one long oil globule, irregularly 
warted. Iodine does not color the asci blue. Cooke’s figures (Mycog. 
pi. 97, fig. 351) represent this form very well. The spore measure¬ 
ments are distinctive. Blue Mounds, July 1905. 
Pseudoplectania melaena (Fr.) Sacc. 
The apothecium is light brown, chalice-shaped, and dries jet black. 
The short wrinkled stipe is clothed at the base with brown, non-septate 
hairs. Boudier, leones Myc., pi. 343, is an excellent figure of this spe¬ 
cies which seems to be rare in America. On decayed limbs, Parrman’s 
woods, Algoma, May 1905 (Dodge). 
Pseudoplectania nigrella (Pers.) Fckl. 
Superior, 1908 (Gilbert). 
Lachnea amphidoxa Rehm. 
On wet clay soil in low places frequented by cows, Blahnik’s woods, 
Algoma, August 1909 (Dodge); Rehm via. 
Laclmea Woolhopeia C. & Phil. (Lachnea coerulescens Rehm sp. nov., 
in lift.). 
The specimens differ from typical forms described by Cooke, Gre- 
villea, 7: 75; Mycog., pi. 113, fig. W, in being abo'ut twice as large, 
2—4 mm. across, and in the character of the soft brown hairs that 
cover the exterior. These hairs are brown throughout their entire
