The fructification in vertical a = cortex. c=dark veins of compact hvphae. d = air-containing tissue, h = ascogenous hyphae, with numerous asci. (After Tulasne ; from Strasburger.) Tuber rufutn section ( x 5). but there is here no intra-cellular digestion (Chapter XII.). The Lichens are very various in form. In simple cases they may be filamentous, as in Ephebe, which is like a filamentous Alga with a fungus growing in its mucilaginous walls. Some appear as flat gelatinous thalli, readily swelling with water, as in Collema, which is based upon the gelatinous Alga, Nostoc. Others are more firm in texture, and form variously flattened thalli, more or less closely attached to the substratum of rocks, roofs, or tree-trunks, etc. Others again are erect or pendulous, and often branched, rising freely from their base of attachment. In texture they are brittle when dry, but more or less leathery when moist, and they vary greatly in colour from g«rey to more vivid yellow, or even red. They are curiously.
