part.

CLAVARIA RUGOSA.

FIRST received fine fpecimens of this from Mr.
E. Forfter jun. in September 1792 ; and have fince met
with the fame with little variation. The fubftance
more tender than in the preceding, and moftly hoi'
low.

SPHiERIA PAPILLOSA.
I HAVE found this plant covering whole trunks of
felled trees that were decaying: my friend the Rev.
Mr. Kirby has alfo fent me fpecimens from Barbara,
Sufiblk. Some plants have a marked ring round the
mouth, with the appearance of an operculum. This
circumflance is very diftindl in a fpecies brought by
Mr. Menzies from Owyhee, which refembles ours in
every refpedt, except being about twice the fize. I believe
this plant has efcaped our Engliih authors, nor
have I feen it anywhere figured.

SPH^RIA COMPOSITA.
1 FOUND this compound Sphceria upon a ftick on
Kennington-common, Surry. The principal one is
for the moft part immerfed in the inner bark, the
upper part imprefling the cortex, and the mouth protruding
through the epidermis, often fcarcely vifible,
although the tendril is occafionally. very confpicuous.
The younger ones are placed in the form of fatellites
to a planet on the inner bark, and feem not to be ripe
enough for fruólifying. It fomewhat refembles Namafpora
chryfofperma of Perfoon.

HELVELLA HYBRID A.
S E N T me by Mr. Robfon, May 29th, 1797. It is,
1 believe, quite a new fpecies. The elaftic, tranfverfe,
wrinkled, ftriated appearance, length of the ftipes, and
general proportions diftinguifli it from H. ejcuknta,
tab. 51. It is much of the fame fubftance and tafte,
but perhaps more leathery.
