CRYPTOGAMS COLLECTED IN THE BAHAMAS, ETC. 119 
SEPTORIA sp. , 
On Plumeria obtusa. Crooked Island. Nov. 1890. 
Spots orbicular, zonate, light brown, 3-6 mm. diam., with a narrow 
slightly raised border. Perithecia scattered on the spots, epiphyllous, 
innate with the apex prominent, small, 100-120 # diam. Sporules 
strongly curved, continuous, nucleolate, 12-20 1-14 #. 
Ramutaria BauwiniaAk E. & E. n. sp. 
On leaves of Bauhinia divaricata L. Port Morant, 
Jamaica. Dec. 1890. 
Mycelium forming thin, white, scattered, indefinitely limited patches 
on the under side of theleaf. Fertile hyphae cespitose, hyaline, 15-25 < 
3, roughened, and often toothed above, with the apex mostly trun- 
cate. Conidia fusoid, continuous or uniseptate, 12-15 < 24-3 4. 
Ramuuarra ToRVI E. & KE. n. sp. 
On leaves of Solanum torvum Sw. Port Morant, Ja- 
maica. Dec. 1890. 
Hypophyllous, with an olivaceous mycelium, forming definite, sub- 
confluent dark-colored patches, giving the leaf a mottled and clouded 
appearance, but without any spots, except that the upper surface of the 
leaf opposite becomes yellowish brown. Fertile hyphae branched, 
15-85 X 3, smoky-hyaline, somewhat roughened or distinctly toothed 
above, continuous. Conidia terminal or lateral, ovate, continuous, 
5-7 2-24 L, smoky-hyaline. 
Varies from typical Ramularia in its dark-colored mycelium, which 
gives it the aspect of Cercospora. 
Cercosrors Prreris E. & HE. n. sp. 
On leaves of Piper hispidum Sw. Port Morant, Ja- 
maica. Dec. 1890. 
Hypophyllous, forming suborbicular, dark-colored patches 3-5 mm. 
across, not on any spots, though the upper surface of the leaf, opposite 
the patches below, is blotched with dark-colored, indefinite spots. 
Hyphae cespitose, olivaceous, continuous or faintly septate, 35-40 4-5 
#, spreading and subundulate, but not strongly toothed or bent above. 
Conidia faintly brownish, cylindrical, nucleate, becoming faintly 3- or 
more-septate, 35-60 >< 3 #. 
Cercospora TurNnERAE E. & E. 0. 8p. 
On leaves of Turnera ulmifolia L. Nassau. 
Spots epiphyllous, whitish, indefinite; border brown. Hyphae 
hypophyllous, tufts effused, forming subindefinite patches 3-4 mm. 
across, the part of the leaf occupied by the fungus a little paler, but there 
are no definite spots. Hyphae tufted, brown, undulate, faintly nucleate, 
continuous or sparingly septate, 60-90 X 4 #. Conidia slender, brown- 
ish, faintly 1-3-septate, straight, attenuated above or the shorter ones 
cylindrical, 60-90 X 3-4 ft.
