1915. Fitzpatrick, Harry Morton. Monograph of the Coryneliaceae. Mycologia 12: 

 239-267. 1920. — The conclusion of work previously noted (see Bot. Absts. 6, Entry 1217). 

 The genus Corynelia is described and a key to species is given, followed by a description of 

 each species. The following new species are included: C. bispora, C. nipponensis, C. brasili- 

 ensis, C. portoricensis, and C. jamaicensis. Doubtful and excluded species of the family 

 are discussed, and in this connection Hypsotheca thujiana E. & E. is listed as probably belong- 

 ing to the genus Caliciopsis. — H. R. Rosen. 



1916. Fraser, W. P. Cultures of Puccinia Clematidis (DC.) Lag. and Puccinia Impa- 

 tientis (Schw.) Arth. Mycologia 12:292-295. 1920.— Overwintered telial material of Puc- 

 cinia Clematidis on Hystrix patula produced infections on Actaea rubra, with the production 

 of aecia. These aecia as well as others collected in the field were inoculated and produced 

 infections on the following grasses: Elymus canadensis, E. virginicus, Hordeum jubatum, 

 Hystrix patula, and Agropyron Richardsonii. According to E. B. Mains the aecial and telial 

 material corresponds to the European Puccinia Actaeae-elymi Mayor and P. Actaeae-agropyri 

 Ed. Fisch. It seems best to include these under one species, P. Clematidis (DC.) Lag., 

 which is made up of several races. Inoculations with aeciospores from Thaliclrum dasy- 

 carpum produced infections on Bromus ciliatus, B. latiglumis, Elymus canadensis, and E. 

 virginicus. Since the resulting teliospores on Bromus were of the many-celled type, and on 

 Elymus of the two-celled type, the author believes that the Thalictrum aecia used in the inocu- 

 lations consisted of a mixture of aecia of two races. Using aecial material of Puccinia impa- 

 lientis (Schw.) Arth. on Impatiens biflora the following grasses were infected: Agropyron 

 tenerum, A. Richardsonii, Hystrix patula, Elymus canadensis, E. virginicus, and Hordeum 

 jubatum. — H. R. Rosen. 



1917. Grove, W. B. Species placed by Saccardo in the genus Phoma. Part II. Kew

1918. Lehman, S. G. Penicillium spiculisporum, a new ascogenous fungous. Mycologia 

 12 : 268-274. PI. 19. 1920. — From healthy cotton rootlets a Penicillium was obtained 

 which produced perithecia in abundance on various culture media. It is described as P. 

 spiculisporum sp. nov. — H. R. Rosen. 



1919. Murrill, W. A. A new Amanita. Mycologia 12:291-292. 1920.— Venenarius 

 Wellsii sp. nov. is described. "For the benefit of those following Saccardo .... the 

 combination Amanita Wellsii" is added. — H. R. Rosen.
