Tiie gouidia separate this from C. trichiale, to whicli it lias been referred
r. ‘‘'•"Glow because of the appearance of the thallus. Nylander (in
iL. ib/ o) regaras it as a variety oi C. melanophcmm, from wîiicli it is dis-
linguisiied by tlio larg^ subsessile apothecia. The thallus is frequently
more or less sprinkled with irregular rusty spots. I t is often iterile ;
wlieii tertUe the apothecia are numerous, aud sometimes 2-3 or more become
couflueut.

In favourable situations this spreads extensively, though more frequently
it occiu-s in small, interrupted patclies. Nearly agrees with
a. ohlsocephalvm iu the colour of the thallus, though the colour of the
apothecia and the spores are very diverse. Often infertile; when present
the apothecia are generally very niimerons.

This form is distinguished by the more pulverulent thallus and the
colour of the eapitulum above, though this latter character is not always
present. The stipes is occa.sionally very short, so that the apothecia are
almost sphincti-iniform (= fo rn i sessile Croinb.)—a condition which is
referred to by Turner aud Borrei in Lic-b. Br. p. 142.
