access to a specimen of this, my identification is based entirely 

 on the description with which it agrees well. 



ROSELLINIA ALBOLANATA E. & E. Tolland. 



On decorticated sticks of Salix. Ascospores 25-27 x 5-8 /i. 

 In the early condition it has a thin ''cartridge-buff" (Ridg.) 

 subiculum which extends considerably beyond the fertile por- 

 tion, much as in R. suhiculata. The perithecia are for quite a 

 time covered by it, but gradually denuded as they approach 

 maturity. In age, the subiculum becomes "ecru-drab" to 

 cinerescent. Ellis, in A^. A. Pyrenomycetes, places it in the 

 wrong section. 



RosELLiNiA THELENA Rabcnh. Rare, Tolland. On dead 

 bark of Picea Engelmanni. Known by the distinct appendages 

 at each end of spore. 



Strickeria megastega (E. & E.) comb. nov. Tolland. {Tei~ 

 chospora megastega E. & E., Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci., Phila., 1890, 

 p. 243.) Common, Tolland. On decorticated sticks of Salix, 

 Alnus and poplars. 



Trematosphaeria corticola Fkl. Tolland. 



On decorticated wood of Alnus tenuifolia. The perithecia at 

 first break through, but at length appear entirely superficial; 

 the asci have very thick walls; the spores measure 35-40 x 7.5 ix. 



Valsa abietis Fr. Tolland. On dead branches of Abies 

 lasiocarpa. 



Valsa nivea Fr. Tolland. On dead branches of Populus 

 tremuloides. The material is overripe and few spores were seen. 

 Associated with Cytospora nivea. Ascospores 9-12 x 1.5-2 fi. 



Valsa salicina (Pers.) Fr. Tolland. On dead branches of 

 Salix. 



Valsa sordida Nitschke. Tolland. On dead branches of 

 Populus tremuloides. 



Valsaria moroides (C. & P.) Sacc. Tolland. On dead
