    GLOSSAEY AcROGEmus—■produced at the sum- mit. AcroffOiiidmm—gonidmm at the sum- mit of a gonidiophore. Acrospore—spore formed at the sunjmit of a sporophore. Aeddiospore ~ spores formed in an Aecidium, serially and successively abstricted. ^eac^mm — cup - shaped receptacle in the Uredines, enclosing a hymenium producing Aecidiospores. Aethalmm —body formed in Myxo- mycetes from a large combination of Plasmodia. Alveolate—pitted like honeycomb. Amoeboid~]ike an Amoeba ; applied to a protoplasmic body which creeps by putting out and retractin<^ pseudopodia. ° Angiocarpoits—having the hymenium developed within the sporophore, and covered from the first by a special envelope. Anmclus—in Hymenomycetes, portion ot the veil, or tissue of the stipe lormmg a collar or ring. Antheridium—male sexual organ Archkarp-cell, or group of cells, fertil- ised by a sexual act. Arthrosporous—snch Schizomycetes as have no endogenous spore-formation Asciferotis, Ascigerous—hearing asci Ascocarp-a. sporocarp bearing asci and sporidia, or ascospores. ^scofirewoMs—producing asci. Ascophore — sporophore bearing an ascus. o Ascospore-spore contained in an ascus =sporidmm. Ascics TJieea-Urge cell or sac in which ascospores are developed, typically eight. ^ ' Autoecious, or Autoxenous—a. parasite which goes through the whole course ot its development on a single host Autonommcs-plmts that are perfect 23 and complete in themselves, not forming part of a cycle. £asi2)iopiiors—sporophore bearing a basidium. Basidiospore—spore produced at the apex of a basidium. Basidmm—mother - cell from which spores are abjointed. In Hymeno- mycetes, a sporophore bearing from one to four spores on short sterio-. mata. ° Brood-cell—same as gonidium or coni- diiim. Cap —in Hymenomycetes, same as pileus. Capillitmm—sterile threads or tubes often branched, mixed Avith the spores in the spore-masses of some Gastromycetes and Myxomycetes. Carpophore—genera^lly, the support of the Iructification; specially, the stalk or a sporocarj). Carpospore—spore formed in a sporo- carp. CJilamydospore—spore with a very thick spore-membrane. Chlorophyll — the green colouring matter in plants, absent in all r ungi. Clamp-connection — small semicircular protuberance attached through its length, or leaving an eyehole, to the walls of two adjoining cells of a septate hypha, and stretching over the septa between them, communicat- ing Avith one or both, or cut off from both, and forming a clamp-cell. Uctstocarp—ascoc&rp forming a com- pletely closed cavity, which is finaUv ruptured to permit the ascospores to Columella—sterile central bodv in a sporangium. Concatenate-linked together in a Cham.
