A well-marked form distinguished by the short podetia (2-3 lines in
lieiglit) and by the granulose squamules. The apothecia, which Acharius
(Lich. Univ. p. 543) erroneously describes as “ brown,” are apparently
extremely rare ; so that the plant is generally spoken of as steri e.

Y'ell characterized by the crowdedly rugose basal and podetial squamules,
whicli give it a peculiarly scabrid appearance. The podetia are
from 4 to 4 in. long, of moderate thickness, and often divided towards
the apices. In the simple podetia tbe apotbecia are rarely present; but
iu those more divided they are frequent and numerous.

They are also occasionallv obscurely scyphoid at the apices, the scyphi
being coarsely granular within. When present the apothecia are mi'imte
