Targets grow upon the leaves. Linn. FI. Suec. Flat, broad, loose, irregu¬ 
larly lobed ; lobes indented, about an inch broad, several inches long, 
cloven at the end, and lopped. Substance flexible, white and woolly 
within. Surface fine green, bluish when dried, brownish with age, spread 
over with an elevated net-work, with hollows in the interstices. Warts 
mealy, crowded on the edges of the leaf or on the rising edges of the 
net-work. Saucers in the hollows or at the edges of the leaves, facing 
horizontally, circular, two-tenths of an inch diameter, often two or three 
together, brown red, or dark purplish. The plants with saucers are not 
very common, but are chiefly to be found on the higher branches of 
trees, in which situation also other Lichens seldom yet found with 
saucers must be looked for, as the capei'atus, glaucus , saxatihs , &c.

(Lungwort, Hazel Rag, or Hazel Crottles, North of Ireland. Bags , 
Herefordshire. Sticta pulmonaria. Achar. Hook. E.) On the trunks of 
old trees, principally oaks, in shady woods. On heaps of stones in 
moist shady places. Ray. Garn dingle, Mr. Griffith. On oaks in the 
New Forest. (On trees near Healy Field and A Hansford; near Egleston 
and Middleton ; in Blackstone Rank Wood, near Wolsingham, Durham; 
near Unthank, Northumberland. Mr. Winch. E.) P. Jan.—Dec.* 
L. cilia'ris. Saucers red brown, scolloped, on fruit-stalks : leaves some¬ 
what upright, segments strap-shaped, fringed.

Foliage strap-shaped, narrow, one or two inches long, variously cut into 
pointed segments, fringed with blackish or self-coloured hairs, so as to give 
a rough and almost prickly appearance to the plant. When wet good 
green above, sea-green underneath, but whitish when dry; smooth. 
Warts of the same or a darker colour, numerous, often crowded. Saucers 
on the upper branches and on the stem, on short pedicles; dark brown to 
black ; border the colour of the leaves. Hoffman. 
(Great Ciliated Lichen. Barrera ciliaris. Achar. Hook. E.) On 
trees, in woods common. 
Var. 2. Warty. Large, without saucers, but thickly set with small warts.

Mr. Griffith favoured me with a specimen of this which he has watched for 
ten years, and it remains the same, only increasing in size. Branches and 
segments not unlike the horns of a deer, and velvety like the young horns. 
Warts dark reddish brown, very minute. 
* It is reckoned very efficacious in consumptive cases; this opinion merits further 
investigation. Woollen cloth boiled with it becomes of a permanent orange. Rutty. 
The people of Herefordshire dye their stockings with it of a durable brown. Dill. (In 
Siberia it is boiled in ale, instead of hops. Gmelin. It is used on the continent not 
unsuccessfully in decoction with milk, to cure coughs. It is bitter, astringent, and 
mucilaginous, and promotes expectoration. E. Bot. A mucilage which, on drying, 
resembles gum arabic, may be obtained from this plant, which is probably not dissimilar 
in virtues to the preceding, E.)
