Two collections of Cyathus costatus from Venezuela form a corroborating basis for a validating decription of Lloyd's species which has not heretofore been published legitimately. Lloyd's specific epithet is retained. Comparison with Lloyd's “type” material is made and illustrations of the latter are provided, as well as a new and emended description embracing the original and the recently‐recognized specimens.
