thinking they were the same. But the Kew specimens are a 

 Phomopsis, and probably identical with one of the species known 



England 



speci- 



to occur on Aesculus. Since Berkeley's New 

 men is very small in quantity, and he seems to have published no 

 description, while Cooke's description in Grevillea (xvii. 42) is 

 apparently a compound of the two sets of specimens (for its 

 spores are not those of the Kew fungus), it would be better to 

 drop the name altogether. 



In the vain endeavour to decide to which of the species of 

 Diaporthe on Aesculus the Kew fungus should be assigned, it 

 was thought well to examine D. aesculicola, Cooke^ D. Hippo- 

 castani, Cooke, and Cryptospora Aesculi, Fckl. The examina- 



which were 



tion showed clearly that these three species, 

 represented by authentic specimens, are all identical. 



All three 



are accompanied by Septomyxa Aesculi, Sacc, the C-spores of 

 the Diaporthe; but in the first the ascophorous stage predominates, 

 in the second the pvcnidial stage, and so they present different 

 aspects by which Cooke was misled, while Fuckel's is merely 

 the young state before the septum of the ascospores is developed. 

 The species should be called D. Hippocastani (Cooke), since that 

 is the earliest name to which a correct description was appended.
