small; and scattered, stipes more or less elongate, stout, rusty-
brown, yellowish-suffusod ; eapitulum globoso-lontiform ; spores
oblong, simple or faintly 1-septate, 0,0 0 6 -1 1 mm. long, 0 ,0 0 2 5 -

The colour aud general aspect of the fructification as well as the sterile
thallus of the host give this species the appearance of a state of Coniocyhe
fiirfuracea. The spores are not fully developed in specimens growing
in shady places.
Bah. Parasitic on the thallus of Lecidea ludda on stones in shady walls
in upland districts.—Di'sir. Rather local and scarce, having been gathered
only sparingly in AVales, N. England, and the Central Highlands, Scotland.—

—Thallus thickish, granulose, yellowrish-white or cream-coloured
(K + red), sometimes nearly obsolete. Apothecia m oderate, scattered ;
stipes moderate or somewhat long, stout, black ; eapitulum tu rb in a te,
black ; sporal mass occasionally protruded; spores 0,00 2 5 -0 ,0 0 8 mm.

In general appearance this seems allied to C. trichiale, but the form of
the gonidia and the chemical reaction afford definite marks of distinction.
The apothecia are irregularly scattered and generally not numercius in
British specimens.

posts in wooded upland tracts.—Distr. Local and scarce in S., E., and
