A CONSPECTUS OF THE LICHEN GENUS STEREOCAULON ...

I. MACKENZIE LAMB: A Conspectus of S~ereocaulon
St. sphaerophoroides TUCK.
TUCKERMAN'S protologue (1845) mentions no place of origin, but states that it was collected
by L. GOULDING (ex herb. LAMBERT). He sent this type specimen to TH. FRIES, who wrongly
identified it with his St. leporinum. This specimen, which appears to be the holotype of
St. sphaerophoroidess2, is preserved in UPS-TH FR, labelled "In monte ignivomo Ind. Occid. ?
Rev. L. GOULDING", and is typical St. virgatum ACH. See further discussion on pages 206,207.
