1919] Blasdale: Uredmales of California 111 



The genetic connection between the two stages was first established 

 by Arthur (Mycologia, vol. 1, p. 252, 1909, vol. 4, p. 57, 1912), who 

 succeeded in growing aecia on Crategus Pringlii Sarg. from telia 

 obtained from Corvallis, Oregon. From the latter state it is reported 

 to be a rather serious pest by O'Gara (Science, vol. 39, p. 60, 1914), 

 and by Jackson (Phytopathology, vol. 4, pp. 41, 261), attacking 

 especially pears, quinces, and certain varieties of apples.
