Pleurogramme loheriana Christ in Bull. Herb. Boiss. II 6 (1906)

Christ^ distinguishes his Pleurogramime loheriana from P, pusilla 
(Blume) Christ by its "having the soriferous line sunk in an exactly 
marginal grove." Fee states of his species "sporotheciis .... exacte 
marginalihus." Comparison of absolutely authentic specimens leaves no 
doubt as to the identity of the two species.
