. Hawaiian Fungi. Fungi. 8o Bernice P. Bishop Museum—Bulletin fungus, but on another fungus in the same packet. It may also be noted that the specimen issued by Ule as "no. 65 Myc. ; under the label "Asterina reptans cfr. B. & ; though without spores, is in the thallus characters quite a different species from any at present under discussion. Theissen and Sydow (196, vol. 15, p. 427), state that the specimen of Trichopeltis reptans referred to above, is immature and generically doubt- ful, and they therefore reject it as the type of the genus Trichopeltis, accepting instead the one other species known to them, T. pulchella Figure 15.—Trichopeltis: a, T. pulchella, redrawn from Spegazzini's figures on his packet no. 2365—thallus, asci, and spores; b, T. chilensis, redrawn from Spegazzini's figures' on his packet labelled "Trichothyrium chilensis;" c, T. reptans (No. 1054) on Straussia sp. showing general type of thallus, cell arrangement, and location of perithecia. This procedure I regard as unwarranted, since the generic descriptions given by Spegazzini is adequate and the fungus on which it was founded is recognizable in Spegazzini's specimen. I therefore regard T. reptans as the type species of the genus, accepting Spegazzini's characterization and I give herewith a photomicrograph (PL ix, A) of a portion of a thallus from Spegazzini's specimen of F. C. no. 734, which I regard as the fungus intended by him as the type of this genus. I give also a photo- graph (PI. ix, B) of the whole specimen. Trichopeltis pulchella, the type specimen of which was also kindly loaned to me by Spegazzini, is clearly.
