Trichopeziza episphaeria (Mart.) Lamb. Myc. Belg. II p. 524. — 

 On Hypoxtjlon rubiginosum Fr. 



On the stromata we found some small specimens of a Trichopeziza 

 (syn.: Basyscypha or LacJmum) having quite the microscopical appearance 

 of the named species. In the description of this no microscopical cha- 

 racters are given, owing to which it is an open question whether the 

 species belongs to Dasyscypha (what most likely is the case) or perhaps 

 to LacJmum. The material examined does not allow us to settle the 

 question as only the spores were well preserved; these are elhptic-oblong 

 — oblong-fusiform, 4 — 5 ju ^:^ about 2 ju, hyaline.

Capnodium sp. 



On leaves of Mangifera indica that were black from the velvet-like 

 covering of Fumago vagans, we succeeded in seeing perithecia in sure 

 connexion with the i^Mj«a^o-mycelium. As these perithecia were unripe 

 we were not able to determine the species; however it is doubtless that
