any showing the disease be promptly destroyed ; that the distribution of dis- 

 eased pines be prevented; and that in case the disease is shown to winter on 

 Kibes, the distribution of such plants showing disease be also prevented. 



Physalospora latitans attacking Eucalyptus rosti-ata, R. Avekna-Sacca 

 (Fazendeiro [Sao Paulo], 5 {1912), No. 6, pp. 232-235; abs. in Internat. Inst. 

 Agr. [Rotne], Bui. Bur. Agr. Intel, and Plant Diseases, S (1912), No. 10, pp. 

 2310, 2311). — This fungus, observed by the author in 1911 and since, on 

 E. rostrata, was not found to infect the other numerous species of cultivated 

 Eucalyptus nearby. The disease is said to appear in July or August. It is 

 stated that the leaves wither and fall prematurely if the petioles are attacked 

 and that new branches almost always die, also that heat and moisture seem to 

 promote the activity of the fungus. 



It is claimed that proper application of Bordeaux mixture will control the 

 disease on young plants, but that in case of older trees the infected branches 

 and leaves should be removed and burned.
