Carolina.] The pustule is brown within, but covered with a distinct black stroma. Sporidia (0002 in.) '005 m.m. long. This is clearly not the Valsa longirostris of Tulasne, nor iha Diatrype(Mamiania) hysirix of De Notaris. Berkeley re- gards it as the Sphoeria, hystrix of Tode. We have seen no specimens. 2438. Diatxype corniculata. B.diBr. Circumscribed Diatrype. Innate, stroma whitish; conceptaculum black ; perithecia de- cumbent ; ostiola crowded, subcylindrical, distinct, even; asci clavate, containing eight sausage-shaped sporidia.—B. ^ Br. Ann. N H. no. 845. Sph. corniculata, Ehr. exs. no. 300, Fr. S.M. ii. p. 584. Nees.f. 330. Eng.Fl. v.p. 247. On dead branches. Mar. Lucknam. Sporidia {•0004--000o in.) •01--0125 m.m. long, concealed beneath the epidermis, except the orifices, which are considerably exserted. Ostiola pretty constantly umbilicated.—Grev. B. Sporidia uniseptate, hyaline. 2439. Diatrype varians. Curr. Variable Diatrype. Perithecia subglobose; ostiola conical, sometimes umbilicate at the apex, the masses penetrate the bark in long parallel lines; sporidia biseriate, colourless, obtuse, constricted in the centre' uniseptate, cymbiform laterally, variable in width.—Curr. Linn. Trans, xxii. p. 270, t. i6,f. 77. B. ^ Br. Ann.N.H. no. 834. On dead twigs. June. Eltham. The position of this species is considered doubtful. The bark in which the perithecia are immersed is scarcely at all changed. Sporidia COOOB in ) •015 m.m. r- V ./ 2440. Diatrype inaequalis. Curr. Unequal Diatrype. Perithecia subglobose ; ostiola short and rugose, surface of the wood blackened and rugged ; sporidia greenish, obtuse, con- stricted m the middle, uniseptate.—Cun-. Linn. Trans, xxii t f. 79.
