Subfamily I. AURICULARIOIDE^ Basidia elongate or fusoid, simple, transversely septate. Species 2001—2003 XCVII. AURICULARIA Bull. (From a fancied resemblance in some of the species to an ear, auricula^) Subcoriaceous or gelatinous when moist, broadly remotely and reticulately costate or plicate, collapsingwhen dry. Basidia cylindrical, transversely tri- quadri- or quinque-septate, each joint or cell producing a single, slender sterigma from Auricular ia TREMELLINACE^E 445 its apex. Spores oblong, curved, producing on germination abranched promycelium bearing several strongly curved sporidiola.(Fig. 112.) A genus of fungi greatly resembling Stereum in habit, andperhaps more nearly allied to the Thelephoracea than the Tremel-. Fig. 112.—A, B, Auricularia mescnterica Pers., entire and in section. One-half natural size,c, basidium and spore ; d, spores germinating and producing sporidiola. X 500. linacecz; the fructification is, however, very different from that ofThelephora, while the strigose cartilaginous pileus differs from typicalTremellinacece. The next genus Hirneola is clearly allied to Auriculariain habit, substance and fructification. Species 2001, 2002 2001. A. mesenteriea Pers. (from a fancied resemblance to the mesenteric membrane) a b resupinate, then reflexed, entire or slightly lobed, villous,yellowish, often green at base from algal growths; z. costato-plicate, brownish-violet, livid-purple or grey-liver. Taste insipid; odour none. Trunks, stumps, beech, elm, walnut, vine,chestnut, furze, broom, yew ; frequent. 8£ in. Som
