TAB. CXVI.

PEZIZA Calyculus. Bull. t. 416. f. 3.

This differs but little from P. ochrleuca, except in proportion and colour, and in having the stipes shorter with respect to the cup. It does not shrink much in decay.

TAB. CXVII.

PEZIZA fructigena. With. ed. 3. v. 4. 350.

This seems to want more than a description to distinguish it from P. calyculus. It is however more waxy, uniformly lighter in colour, and when on the sides of the fruit, &:c. on which it grows, the item is lengthened, weak and flexuose. It shrinks much in drying, and becomes yellower.

TAB. CXVIII.

PEZIZA comitialis. Batsch. fig. 152.

I was favoured with these specimens by the Rev. Mr. Relhan, who gathered them in Madingley Plantations. This is in appearance a very near approach to a Lichen.
