Pileus fuscous - whitish, ef- fuso-reflexed, lobed, variegated with strigoso - tomentose, velvety and smooth zones. Hymenium fuscous- livid, reticulato-ribbed with distant folds.

Hymenium amphigenous, even or tubercular, springing imme- diately from the mycelium without an intermediate stratum; in typical species fertile and swelling when moist, fleshy-soft, con- tracted and hence commonly cracked when dry, or the whole breaking up. There are other species added to the genus with the hymenium arid and incrusting. Sporophores 4-spored, rarely single-spored. Resupinate, growing on wood, often sterile. Fr. Hym. Eur. p. 646. I. Lomantia (, a fringe). Resupinate, but free at the circumference, determinate, marginate, commonly cup-shaped then expanded. II. Himanti^s (tftas, a strap). Resupinate, effused, immarginate, clothed with flaxy fibrils or strigosely hairy at the circumferenc
