From these brief notices it is evident that fructificationof widely diverse types may be found to be produced withinreceptacles which areopen above andtherefore most prevalentform is the asci-gerous, in which thesporidia are producedin asci, packed close-ly side by side andforming a compactdisc, as in the Disco-mycetes. An ana-logous genus is foundin Hymenomycetes,in which the sporesare produced uponbasidia, as they arein Corticiii the Gastro-mycetes the cup-shaped receptaclesenclose lenticularperidiola which con-tain Fig. 27.—Crucibulum ridijai-c.
