The two kinds of spores occurred often in the same pycnidium 
side by side, the B-spores as abundant sometimes as the others. 
The sporophores which had lost their spores frequently became 
elongated and acuminated so as to resemble at first sight the 
B-spores, but retained always the subulate base. The foregoing 
account, owing to examination of fresh specimens, differs slightly 
from that given in Journ. Bot. l.c.; whether the species is iden- 
tical with Brunaud’s variety is doubtful, but it is quite different
