93. Nectria llussELLii, B. & C. Grev. lY, p. 43. 
“ Csespitose, red, inclining to brown; ostiolum papilliform, at length 
sunk from collapsing ; sporidia cymbiform, uniseptate, 15—20 y- long. 
On elm, New England, Russell.” Var MagyioUce, Sacc., differs somewhat 
from the type in its shorter (10—11 x 5—6 !->■) sporidia, slightly con¬ 
stricted, with the lower cell a little narrower and the perithecia at 
length collapsing. On bark of Magnolia, So. Ca. (Uavenel). 
94. Nectria offuscata, B. &. C. Grev. IV, p. 45. 
Csespitose, dingy, dark, brown-red, minutely granulated, ostiolum 
depressed ; asci clavate ; sporidia biseriate, oblong, about one fourth as 
broad as long; externally resembing N. EusseUii. On Hibiscus. South 
Carolina.” 
95. Nectria ditissima. Till. 
Perithecia densely gregarious, small, subglobose, bright red, verti¬ 
cally collapsed when prematurely dried ; ostiolum papilliform, minute ; 
asci clavate, about 80 fj- long and 8—10 p- broad above, contracted below 
into a slender base ; sporidia crowded, biseriate, fusoid-oblong, 1-sep- 
tate, slightly curved, 14—16 x 4—4i !>■. On dead Acacia. So. Ca. (Rav- 
enel), on Melia, Louisiana (Langlois). 
96. Nectria verrucosa, Schw. Syn. N. Am. 1401. 
Perithecia csespitose, ovate-globose, verrucose-roughened, pale red, 
not collapsing, about i millim. in diam., seated on an orange-red, de¬ 
pressed, globose, substipitate stroma {Tubercnlaria), forming groups 
1—2 millim. in diam.; asci oblong-cylindrical, with a short, substipitate 
base, 60—70 x 10—12 P’, sporidia biseriate, oblong, uniseptate, 12—16 
X 4—5 p. The stroma, as in most other Nectrias, is finally hidden and 
partially obliterated by the perithecia. Common on Morns and Sassa¬ 
fras, Pennsylvania (Schweinitz), onMorus, Melia, etc.. So. Ca. (Ravenel) 
and on Morus, N. Jersey (Ellis). Differs from JSf. cinnabarina in the pe¬ 
culiar roughening of the perithecia and in its shorter asci and mostly 
narrower sporidia. N. coccinea has the perithecia nearly smooth or when 
dry slightly furfuraceous.

NOTES ON FLORIDA FUNGI.-No. G. 
BY W. W. CALKINS, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS. 
ISIy observations, thus far, justify Hie opinion that not many species 
are to be found in the pine woods section nor on the genus Finns. Even 
dead trees and limbs are singularly bare of this order. Tliis may be due 
to the resinous properties of the pine and also to the fact that pine woods 
are generally open, admitting much light and sunshine. In part, also.
