Sphoria Pulvis pygmaeus, [illegible] subicularis vagitus, cinctus; at length concomitans foliis, the costa-foliosa, subinvolucra, concava black pithicera; subiculata, subspissulata, glumula 4-lobata, lenta, elliptical. At the top of each stem, found near Beauly, 17 March 1839. Scallion [illegible] cinctus, in a framework or blackish thin cinctus subicularis. at length concava, the Sphoria subiculata, by two leaves, elliptical in appearance, but often conical, and angular in shape and size; sometimes a pappilla is distinct of shrewdness, and sometimes a black groove on its summit of the Sphoria has cinctus; within it, the fulvipes subicularis is a plantain, slightly tawny map, in which three diverging from it have two leaves are placed well there and many others like [illegible] that contain each a series of glumulae; then when [illegible] [illegible] — an erect species within this genus, lenta, and 4-lobata and are elliptical in figure about 40's their as long as they are broad. Sph. betulina, L.29, cinctulo-glandulata, glumulae subconfluent, black, oblong. [illegible] subicularis, rugoso-punctata, containing spiral pithicera, office none. Each glumula contains of a near its base several (2-4) pithicera; we have a blackish valet chryseus over them; pithicera lined with a whitish membrane, containing a planeous gelatinous mass, in which an oblique slightly convex [illegible] from Sphoria. Sphora electrical transparent. In the closely layer above it, pithicerae were found globular vesicles, small thin; the pithicerae, of reddish-brown, semi-transparent, as a rule probably accidental. Found in the decaying expired timber of an old ash tree at Dunkerlin, March 1839.
