HELVELLA æruginosa. Dicks.fasc. 2. p. 24. With. v. 4. p. 341. ed. 3. F. Dan. 534. 2.
Found on rotten stumps in humid places. It varies much in shape, is mostly of a vivid green, and somewhat tremulous. The wood on which it grows is always more or less stained with the same green colour as the fungus.

HELVELLA retiruga. Bull. 498. 1.
MERULIUS membranaceus. With. v. 4. p. 153. ed. 3.
Grows on moss, &c. in damp places, to which it is held by its back either with or without a root-like membrane. The whole plant is somewhat like wet parchment, lobed and waved irregularly, with veins or reticulations on the under side. It is mostly of a light brown colour.
TAB. CCCXLIX.
AURICULARIA papyrina. Bull. 402. With. v. 4. p. 342. ed 3.
Grows on the under side of the branches of decayed oaks in small patches, often without the central sinuosities, which are in the larger ones almost prominent enough to make it a Boletus. It sometimes is detached so as to show part of the upper side, like other Auricularia or Boleti. This is somewhat more like thin leather or paper than t. 346 and 348., yet they seem very nearly related.
