On dad twigs of Sephora japonica. The pycnidium of 
Diaporthe Sophorae, Sacc. The pycnidia are sometimes arranged 
in little groups, surrounded by a narrow black line (significant 
of a Diaporthe), but this is frequently not present. The width of 
the spores is given by Saccardo as 3°5-4 pw, and the nce te 
are said to be hooked, 25 x 0-5 p35 these latter are no doubt 
B-spores which Diedicke found in the larger pycnidia, ak” af 
which no trace was seen in the British specimens or in the many 
foreign ones examined. Saccardo issued ene Venet. 1547) 
a remarkable form of this species (var. libricola, Sacc.), which 
has the adi arranged in lines, immersed in the bark of the 
trunk, and each surrounded by a black stain. The spores and 
ipeeophinaa. heexes, are as described above.
