Schaerer has referred, without any doubt, the Liclien rubiformis of E.
Bot. i. 211 2, the Psora ? rubiformis of this work, to the present plant,
making it his var. H. : but his specimen {Lich. Exsicc. n. 37.) is very
different from the E. Bot. figure, and no doubt is correctly referred to
the present species : and it is, further, the plant of Acharius, to whom
M. Schaerer sent his specimen, and received the following remark upon
it: " Biatora rubiformis, Ach. Ms.— Lecidea rubiformis, Ach. Syn. et Lich.
Univ., sed forma Cenomycidis ccespiliiii ibm. quae infantilis Ccnom. symphocarpa."
