Nclhere Beschreibung der von Falck neuaufgestellte Art, deren 

 charakterisches Merkmal das Auftreten von Sklerotien ist. Diesel- 

 ben sind eiförmig 1-2 mm. lang, trocken hart, mit braunen Rinde 

 und weissen, einen Hohlraum umschliessenden Kern. An ihrem 

 natürlichen Entstehungsort erinnern die Sklerotien sehr an Mäuse- 

 kot. Das Auskeimen der Sklerotien erfolgt nach Falck vegetativ.

Ramsbottom, J., Some Notes on theHistory and Classi- 

 fication of the Uredinales. (Trans. Brit. Myc. Soc. IV. 1. p. 77 — 

 105. 1913.) 



A detailed historical account of systematic work on the Uredi- 

 nales is given. The paper concludes with a revised list of British 

 Ureäineae, the Classification adopted being that given by Trotter 

 in Flora Italia Cryptogamia (1908). E. M. Wakefield (Kew). 



Rea, C, Glischrodervna cinctimi, Fckl. (Trans. Brit. Myc. Soc. IV. 1. 

 p. 64—65. Cum tab. 1913.) 



British specimens referred to this species necessitate emendation 

 of Fuckel's definition of the genus. The peridium is only modera- 

 teh^ tough and durable, and dehisces by a central pore that gra- 

 dually enlarges. A \vell-developed capillitium is attached to the inner 

 walls of the peridium. E. M. Wakefield (Kew). 



Rea, C, New and Rare British Fungi. (Trans. Brit. Myc. Soc.

Sraiith, A. L., Pheangella Efnpetri, Boud. (in litt.) and some 

 forgotten Discojnycetes. (Trans. Brit. Myc. Soc. IV. 1. p. 74 — 76. 

 1913.) 



On examination of the original material, Pheangella Smithiana, 

 Boud. (Trans. Brit. Myc. Sodr 1912) has been found to be identical 

 with Cenangiiim Efnpetri, Phill., published in the Scottish Naturalist, 

 1898, p. 89. The descriptions of seven other species from Orkney, 

 published at the same time, are given again in the present 

 paper as the}^ were omitted from Saccardo's Sylloge. The species 

 in question are: HymenoscypJia syniphoricarpi, Phill., Mollisia [Py- 

 renopesisa) carduoriini , (Rhem) Phill., Mollisia (Niptera) cinerella, Sacc, 

 f. caespitosa, Phill., Lachnella orhiciilaris, Phill., L. briinneo-ciliata , 

 Phill., L. [Helotiella) lahiirni, Phill., Ascobolus stictoideus, Speg., 

 Cenangium empetri, Phill. E. M. Wakefield (Kew).
