Description
Summary:<br />The author concludes that Pellicularia Cooke is to be regarded as the name of<br />an inseparable mixtum compositum (nomen confusum) and hence as illegitimate (im-<br />priorable). He believes that, apart from a hypothetical gelatinous medium, Cooke's<br />original material consisted of the combination of the vegetative hyphae of a resupinate<br />hymenomycete and the spores of a pervading imperfect fungus. If one of these con-<br />stituent elements were to be selected as type, the choice would be the spores rather<br />than the vegetative hyphae selected by Rogers.
