 C. C. Beam 21529. 



12. Melampsora Bigelowii Tliiim. 



Tlie specimen reported on fiaUx Wardi Bebb. in the 1915 list has been 

 examined by Dr. C. R. Ball who determines it as on S. cordata Muhl. 



15. PucciNiASTRUM Agri-moniae ( Schw. ) Tranz. 

 On Agrimoniae rostellata Wallr.

21. PucciNiA Bardanae Corda. 



Biillaria Bardanae (Corda) Arth. 

 The host for all collections in Indiana should be Arcfium ininns Schk. 

 not A. Lappa L. 



25. Pucoinia Hieracii (Schnm.) Mart. 

 Bullaria Hieracii (Schum.) Arth. 

 On Hieracium canadense Mx.

26. PucciNiA Kuhniae Schw. 

 Bullaria Kuhniae ( Schw. I Korn. 



This species has been previously recorded as on Kuhnia eupatorioides L. 

 All Indiana collections, according to Mr. Beam, are more properly referred 

 to K. f/Iutinosa Ell. In the 1915 list this was recorded from Harrison and 

 Tippecanoe counties. Specimens are now at hand also from Greene Co.

36. The specimen on which the record for Puccinia Ranunculi Seym, was 

 ba.sed (c. f. Underwood. Proc. Ind. Acad. Sci. 1893:55) has recently been 

 examined and the rust proves to be PolijtheUs fusca (Pers. ) Arth. (c. f. no. 

 135) and the host Anemone quinquefolia L. 



The error in determination has l»oen i)erpetnated throujjh all the previous 

 lists of Indiana rusts. There is some discicpancy in the records but 

 there seems to have been but one collection involved, which was made 

 in ]MontKoinory County in June, 1893, by E. W. Olive ^nd A. A. Hughart, 

 or it was collected by Hughart and communicated to Underwood by Olive. 



Puccinia Ranunculi Seym, is therefore to be stricken from the Indiana 

 flora. It is a very rare rust known in North America only from the type 

 collection, which is now interpreted as on Ranunculus septentionalis Poir. 

 made by Br. J. C. Arthur at Riverside, Chicago, 111., June 2, 1883, and one 

 from Mexico on Ranunculus sp.
