mens received above appear to be what Fries intended ; and therefore the 

 above name is assigned to them. The capillitium is coarser than that of 

 A. cinerea, and the spores are decidedly blue. Its habit also is different, 

 the peridia being scattered in A. cinerea. 



1605. Lindbladia effnsa, F. Licea effusa, P. & Ehrb. With Cribraria 

 argillacea. Aboyne, 1 870. Forres, Rev. J. Keith. We have an orginal 

 specimen from Fries marked as probably belonging to a new genus, before 

 it was characterised. 



1605 bis. Perichcena decipiens, B. & Br. Sporis majoribus minoribusque 

 lsete aureis. On fir-cones. Perth, Dr. Buchanan White. The external 

 appearance is just the same as that of P. stiobilina ; but the spores are 

 bright yellow and of two kinds, the larger "0009- '002 inch long, those of 

 P. strobilina 'OOi- - ooi2 inch long, which is about the size of the smaller 

 spores of P. decipiens. [In the above-mentioned grove of silver firs, where 

 also Nos. 15 16, 1582, and 1592 occurred. The Perichcena filled the whole 

 of one spruce cone.] 



1607. Sporidesmium triglochinis, B. & Br. Soris punctiformibus e basi eel- 

 lulari oriundis ; sporis junioribus obovatis, stipite, brevi sursum incrassato, 

 dein subglobosis oblique divisis, demum oblongis fenestratis. On Triglochin 

 palustre. Perth, Dr. Buchanan White, 1 875. Sori bright brown, "006 — 



•008 inch in diameter, spores '0003 — '0007. Approaches S. pallidum, B. 

 & C. ; but that is on fir, and the spores are not composed of globose cells 

 as in that species. [At Arnbathie, Moor of Durdie near Perth ; not in 

 Rannoch, as stated in the "Annals."] 



1608. Puccinia Molina, Tul. Ann. d. Sc. Nat. Sept. 1854, p. 141. On 

 Molinia ccendea. Rannoch, Dr. Buchanan White. 



* P. caltJuv. On leaves of Ranunculus ficaria with jF.cidium caltJur. 

 New Pitsligo, Rev. J. Fergusson. 



* Trichobasis Cirsii, Lasch., has been found in Perthshire by Dr. Buchanan 

 White and Dr. Cooke. [On the upper side of leaves of Carduus lanceolalus; 

 Craig Var, Kinloch Rannoch. Dr. Cooke gives Dupplin Castle as a 

 locality for the brand spores — Pucinia cirsii. ] 



1610. Fusarium Iranslucens, B. & Br. Pellucidum, substipitatum, 

 margine sub lente leviter ciliato albo-lutescente, sursum umbilicato ; sporis 

 tenuibus cylindricis. On deal. Glamis, Rev. J. Stevenson. Forming 

 little transparent specks about ]/e of a line in diameter. Spores '0003 inch 

 long. Differs from F. minutuhnn, Cd., in the form of the spores. 



1612. F. rhabdophorum, B. & Br. Erumpens, subfulvum, elevatum e 

 basi orbiculata alba ; sporis rectis rhabdiformibus. On dead sticks. 

 Forres, Rev. J. Keith. Spores *ooo6 inch long. 



16 1 3. Cylindrosporiuni senecionis, ~B. & Br. Crespitulis e floccis flexuosis 

 gracilibus ; sporis cylindricis e maculis candidis oriundis. On leaves of 

 Senecio vulgaris. Rannoch, Dr. Buchanan White. Forming white con- 

 spicuous irregular patches on the leaves. 



161 5. Exobasidium 7>accinii, Wor. ; Woronin, Abh. d. naturf. Ges. zu 

 Freiburg, iv., Fung. Aust de Thumen, No. 322. On leaves of Vaccinium 

 vilis-idcza and other species. On Rhododendron it forms a thick gall-like 

 swelling. [On Vaccinium vitis-idiea this is a common species in all the 

 woods of northern Scotland.] 



161 7. Leotia circinans, P.; Fr. Syst. ii. p. 27. On the ground, abun- 

 dantly. Glamis, Rev. J. Stevenson.
