For the explan- ation of the figure see page 71. peridium or paraphyses-envelope); the cells of the envelope are in rows like the spores, and it grows pari passu with the chains of spores and by the constant addition of new elements from the base. This growth is effected by a compact annular row of cells, like basidia, which occupy the margin of the hymenium, and it advances therefore exactly in the same
