ruptured epidermis. On some of the leaves, however, are found 

 the small (0.5-1 mm.) punctiform sori mentioned in the original 

 description. The uredospores are accompanied by paraphyses. 



Puccinia similis E. & K, Bull. Torr. Club, 25: 508. 1898 



The measurements of the teleutospores of this species are in- 

 correctly given. They should be 35-55 x 22-27//. The uredo- 

 spores also vary from globose ; 1 5-26 fit in diameter to ovate or 

 elliptical, 20-30 x 16-22 ft and are coarsely echinulate, much more 

 distinctly so than in P. tanaceti according to Prof. J. C. Arthur. This 

 is identical with P. conferta D. & H., but the descriptions of these 

 two species are very different. P. similis has the sori scattered 

 and larger, and teleutospores rounded at both ends, not to speak 

 of the presence of Uredo and Aecidium in the last mmtinnpH snonVe 



Puccinia grindeliae Peck, Bot. Gaz. 4: 127. 1879 



Puccinia variolans Hark. Bull. Calif. Acad. Sci. Feb. 1884, 

 and Puccinia tuberculaus E. & E. Proc. Phil. Acad. 153. 1893, are 

 synonyms of this species. 



Cytispora annularis E. & E. Bull. Torr. Club, 24: 288. 



1897 



Found also in Canada, by Mr. Macoun, on Fraxinus sambuci- 

 folia. When the epidermis is pulled off the perithecia come with 

 it and when dry they are strongly compressed below so as to be- 

 come cup-shaped. 



Anthostomella mammoides E. & E. Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. 



Phila. 139. 1893 



A reexamination of the original material shows that some of 

 the larger pustules contain 2-4 perithecia. 



the species then is ambiguous between Anthostomella and 

 A nthostoma. 



Lophiostoma pustulatum E. & E. Bull. Torr. Club, 25: 

 503. 1898, is not distinct from Pscudovalsa viticola E. & E. Proc. 



Acad. Nat. Sci. Phil. 343. 1894.
