 confertis, plerumque oppositis, rarius alternantibus, bicellularibus, 

 rectis vel leniter curvatis, fuscis, 17 — 22 micro, longis, cellula 

 basali brevi superiore subgiobosa 9 — 12 micro, lata, hyphopodiis 

 mucronatis oppositis, ampulliformibus, 18 — 24 micro, longis; 

 setis myc^licis numerosissimis, rectis, erectis, rigidis, usque 

 ad apicem opaois, apice acutis, 300 — 400 micro, longis, 8 — 9 

 micro, latis; peritheciis numerosissimis, globosis, atris, 150— 1P5

 2 — 3-sporis, 40 — 50 micro, longis, 20 — 25 micro, latis; sporidiis 

 oblongis, utrinque rotundatis, 4-septatis, ad septa constrictis, 

 fuscvbrunnei*, 34 — 38 micro, longis, 12—16 micro, latis. 



Hab. upon the nether side of the older leaves of one of the 

 Meliaceae No. 13657, Cabadbaran (Mt. Urdaneta), Mindanao, 

 August, 1912, No. 13659. 



This species is characterized by the usually opposite cap- 

 itate hyphopodia, the very numerous, acute' and dark setae 

 and the collapsing densely crowded perithecia.

 peritheciis laxe dispositis, globosis, parurn tuberculatis, atris,
