Fig. 734
Cladoderris Florida
CLADODERRIS FLORIDANA. (Fig. 734.) Usually growing
on top of log, and then cup-shaped with short stipe. When on the
side of log flabelliform or orbicular, reduced to a short stipe-like attachment
at the base. Upper surface reddish brown, zoned, with
appressed, compact, thin, tomentose pad near base. Hymenial surface
reddish brown, densely, minutely papillate, disposed in narrow
ridges, but not with the branching, strong veins of other species of
Cladoderris. Cystidia none. Spores compressed, globose 1]4 x 3,
hyaline, smooth, with a small gutta near the end.
Growing on frondose wood and quite rare at Bayard, Florida.
As only recently I hunted up all the species of Cladoderris in the
museums of Europe, and expressed the opinion that but one valid
species had been named in the last sixty years, I was a little surprised
to find one growing in Florida.
