Mucoidines The Shaw and Sticks in the hillbed 13 April 1889. At first snowwhite, then yellowish, greenish, planar, or of a verdigris [illegible], subrotund, at length ellipsoidal, scarcely 1 line in diameter, consisting of numerous branched a simple filaments, interwoven. If a drop of water be applied (under a lens) the threads, submitted a elliptical, issue with considerable force and for some time in a continued stream in different direction; the longitudinal filaments remain motionless and whitish, the lack of it much seems to separate into threads, which contained the threads, were not detected. In the stream above alluded to, sometimes upwards of 50 threads, completed by other issued, but these mass readily resolved itself into separate fibres.
