Rather rare, but the bright orange-colored spores which are freely dis- 
charged over the under side of the leaves make the fungus very con- 
spicuous. 
Uredo confluens, Pers. 
1801: “Syn. Meth. Fung. p. 214. 
On leaves of Ribes aureum, Rooks county, Aug. 22, 1892. 
This species, which is said to be common in the Rocky Mountain region 
on several hosts in the Grossulariz, is rare in Kansas. The following 
are all presumed to be synonyms, viz.: Coma ribis-alpina, Wint. ; 
Czeoma ribesii, Lk.; Czeoma confluens, ( Pers.) Schroet.; Uredo jonesii, 
Peck, and Uredo ribicola C. & E. 
Uredo gaurina, ( Peck.) 
1889: Bot. Gazette, p. 218. 
On Gaura coccinea, Rooks county, June 15, 1891. 
On Gaura villosa, Seward county, Oct. 1892, M. A. Carleton. 
Of very rare occurrence and doing small damage to its hosts. 
Uredo kansensis, Kell. & Sw. 
1889: Jour. Mycol. V, p. 77. 
On Amorpha fruticosa, Rooks county, July 1885 — type, W. A. Kellerman; 
Manhattan, June 21, 1887, and June 20, 1889, Kellerman and Swingle; 
Rooks county, June 20, 1888, and July 16, 1894. 
Neither common nor destructive. 
Uredo nitens, (Schw.) De Toni. 
1822: Syn. Fung. Carol. No. 458. 
On Rubus canadensis, Manhattan, May 1887, Kellerman and Swingle; 
Lawrence, May 1892, M. A. Carleton. 
On Rubus villosus, Manhattan, May 1889, Kellerman and Swingle (in 
Kansas Fungi, No. 31). Also collected by Carleton, June 1892. 
This, the blackberry rust, which is so destructive from the Missouri river 
eastward, usually does but little damage in Kansas. 
Uredo quercus, Brond. 
In Duby: Botan. Gall. IT, 893. 
On leaves of Quercus macrocarpa, Manhattan, Oct. 1886, Kellerman and 
Swingle (in Kansas Fungi, No. 24.) 
Apparently very rare, as there is no other record of its collection in the 
state.
