308 SHEAR: NEW SPECIES OF FUNGI 
Type, slide mo. r495 C. L. S., from pure culture wo. 1476. 
This fungus was isolated from a diseased cranberry, Vaccinium 
macrocarpum, from near Whitesville, New Jersey, October, 1905. 
Septoria longispora sp. nov. 
Pycnidia gregarious or somewhat scattered, globose or de- 
pressed-globose, somewhat erumpent, covered by the epidermis, 
ostiolate, 150-225 diam.; ostiole small; spores hyaline, filiform, 
curved, frequently S-shaped, sometimes pseudo-septate, 150-240 
3-4, when straightened some are 300 long ; sporophores simple, 
narrow, 6—9y long. 
The length of the spores of this species is quite remarkable 
and separates it easily from the other species thus far described. 
It occurs on both fruit and foliage. 
Type, 0. 1499 C. L. S., on shrivelled rotten cranberries, still 
hanging on the vines, Hunters Mills, New Jersey, October 14, 
1902. Also on fallen cranberry leaves, zo. r500 C. L. S., same 
locality, June 21, 1906. 
Sporonema Oxycocci sp. nov. 
Pycnidia excipuliform, thickened at the base, gradually disap- 
pearing above, arising beneath the epidermis and becoming erum- 
pent, depressed-globose, gregarious or scattered, amphigenous, 
50-100» diam., sometimes collapsing, rupturing irregularly by 
a slit or triangular split; sporophores simple, oblong or subglo- 
bose, about one fourth the length of the spore or less; spores 
hyaline, cylindrical, straight, continuous, 17-19 x 3-4; contents 
homogeneous. 
Type, 0. 1484 C. L.S. (on slide) on dead leaf of Vaccinium 
macrocarpum, near Wareham, Massachusetts, H. J. Franklin, 
coll., May, 1906; also mo. 1485 C.L.S., Cape Cod, Massachu- 
setts, September, 1906; and xo. 1486 C. L. S., near Whitesville, 
N. J., September 2, 1904. 
This bears a superficial resemblance to Phoma Jeptidea (Ft.) 
Sacc., but that has a complete pycnidium and a distinct, regular 
ostiole. It may be the pycnidial stage of a Phacidium. 
Sporonema pulvinatum sp. nov. 
Pycnidia either epiphyllous or hypophyllous, arising from the 
epidermis, dark-brown, pulvinate, frequently collapsing, 300-420 / 
diameter by 100-150 # thick, chamber simple ; ostiole wanting ; 
manner of rupturing not observed ; spores inequilateral or slightly 
curved, continuous, 6-8 x 2-2.5 4, hyaline or slightly greenish-
