* Hygrophorus faetens Phillips. This interesting species was found on 
27th September, 1895, growing amongst short grass on the Old Sea 
Bank at Nottingham Point, King’s Lynn. 
*Cyphella cuticulosa Dicks. Spores oval, 6-8x 4-5 mw. At first 
digitaliform : exactly the plant figured by Dickson. 
On dead grass (Triticum), Sea Bank, Terrington, King’s Lynn, 30th 
December, 1898. 
301. Ditiola (Dacryopsis) ulicisn. sp. Pale lemon yellow becoming 
darker, tough, head globose then flattened, then wrinkled, at first 
slightly villous with a thin, white, hyaline tomentum from 1°5-5 
mm. across; stem firm, paler than the pileus, from -5-1 mm. long, 
sometimes absent or extending only from the wood through the bark; 
hyaline-villous when young; spores variousin form. At first elliptico- 
cylindrical hyaline 15x 5 ., with four or five very marked nuclei, 
the outlines of which are more obvious than the spore-wall. - Older 
spores more cylindrical, hyaline, mostly unseptate, with an oblique, 
large apiculus at the base, when quite mature cylindrical, triseptate 
15-18x5 wu. Basidia slender branched. 
On the dead stems of Ulex europaeus, North Wootton, 26th Jan., 
1899. 
This fungus, which is very common, appears to have been over- 
looked as a young Tremella. It differs from D. radicata Fr. in being 
larger in the head, stouter in the stem, and not distinctly tomentose. 
The D. nuda Berk. Ann. Nat. Hist. No. 375 pl. xi. f. 14 comes 
nearer, but there is a total absence of the small conidia figured by 
Mr. Massee, presumably from an authentic specimen. Both these 
plants were on fir wood, whereas the present species appear to be 
confined to Ulex. Ditiola is such a natural though small genus that 
it seems undesirable to break it up without very good reason. 
Pl. 2 fig. 2 four plants natural size ; on fig. 3 conidia; fig. 4 unseptate 
spores ; fig. 5 fully developed spores ; fig. 6 young basidia. 
302. Lycoperdon lacunosum Bulliard t. 52. Specimens answering to the 
above were found on North Wootton Heath, 22nd October, 1896. It 
is by no means impossible that the fungus figured by Bulliard is 
distinct from L. gemmatum. The peculiar depressed pits on the stem 
are very marked in dry specimens. 
*Geaster mammosus Chev. In considerable abundance on an old 
hedge bank at Hillington, near King’s Lynn, October, 1896, near the 
habitat of G. coliformis Pers.
