1838. _Trichamphora_, Junghuhn, _Fl. Crypt. Javanica_.
Sporangia discoidal, above concave, saucer-shaped, stipitate; the
capillitium variable, anon physaroid, badhamioid, or even as in
_Didymium_.
This genus is set up for the accommodation thus far of the single
species following. It differs from _Physarella_ in the apparently
constant discoidal shape, absence of trabecules, etc.
