Abstract
In Bulgaria inquinans spore discharge continues even when the drying gelatinous apothecium has lost four-fifths of its original weight. In Phallus impudicus evidence is given that the rapid elongation of the stalk involves a considerable increase in weight. In both these fungi the fruit-body is richly supplied with jelly. It is suggested that this represents a water reserve used for spore discharge in the first species and for stipe elongation in the other.
