TAB. LXIII.

PEZIZA tubebosa. Dicks. Crypt, fasc. 2.25. With. v. 3. 436.

Found in Caen wood, Hampstead, by Mr. Hunter, who first favoured me with specimens. I have since received others from J. L. Knapp, Efq. who found them near Kensington Gravel-pits, April 11, 1796. They are surely parasitical on a Lycoperdon Tuber., as they evidently grow on that subterraneous fungus, and are not a continuance of the same substance. The cup only is above ground. This does not agree in every particular with P. radicata of Bulliard, &c. its tuberosity excepted.

TAB. LXIV.

PEZIZA cinera. Batsch. t. 16. fig. 107.

Very common upon rotten stumps, bits of wood, &:c. on the under and shady sides, in damp woods and other places in the autumnal months. Dr. Withering has well described it as a Tremella., but in his 3d edition has referred it to Peziza.

TAB. LXV.

PEZIZA nivea. Bicks. Crypt, fasc. i. p. 21.

Frequent in holes of rotten stumps, and on decaying plants, &c. growing in various directions.
