VIII, c, 6 Sydow: Enuraeration of Philippine Fungi 503 
Luzon, Manila and vicinity, Merrill 8600] on living leaves of Streblus 
asper. 
The fungus forms a quite superficial small stroma which is composed of 
dark-brown, rather loosely interwoven hyphae. The numerous pycnidia are 
nearly superficial or only with their bases slightly sunken in the stroma. 
The wall of the pycnidia is easily distinguished from the tissue of the 
stroma. The wall consists of two strata; an outer parenchymatous one, 
several layers thick, of brown color, and an inner one which is hyaline and 
composed of indistinct and minute cells. The whole cavity is filled with 
the basidia which bear numerous minute spores in chains.

holes are formed between the lobes.
