years later Yamada and Aliyabe^ reported successful cultures 

 showing the relationship between this Roestelia and a caulicolous 

 telial form on Chamaecyparis pisifera, to which they applied 

 the name Gymnosporangmm Miyabei. If we accept the oldest 

 valid name even though it was first applied to the aecial stage, the 

 name of the species is Gymnosporangium solenoides (Diet.) Kern, 

 (Bull. N. Y. Bot. Gard. 7: 450. 191 1). The aecial hosts belong 

 to the genus Sorbiis. Aside from Pyrus Miyabei Sarg., which 

 Is the same as Sorbus alnifolia K. Koch, Sorbus Aria Crantz also 

 is reported as a host.
