This Accidiuiii is very similar to the one on I'oifstciiton. which be 

 longs Avith Puccinia Andropogonis Schw. and probably also belongs with 

 this Puccinia. This supposition is strongly reinforced by a field observa- 

 tion made by Rev. J. M. Bates in 1910. After observing aecia in June on 

 a plant of Afzclia riiacrophijUa, he later found Puccinia Andropogonis de- 

 veloped close by. Since Pciitstcmon, Dasystoina, ami Afzclia all belong 

 to the same family, it is very lilcely that the similar aecia on tlicm have 

 the same telial connection, viz: Puccinia Andropogonis Schw.
