258 BROOKLYN BOTANIC GARDEN MEMOIRS 
ONSPOASCEAR: 1) TIT. 
Elymus glaucus Buckl.—Glendale, Douglass Co., July 17, 1914, 
1347. 
The aecial stage of this rust is very common in western Oregon 
particularly on Hydrophyllum. The uredinial and telial stages are 
doubtless much more common than the single record above would 
indicate. The species is very difficult to separate in the uredinial 
stage from P. Clematidis (cf. 85) and it is probable that some of the 
collections referred to that species belong here. 
Arthur (Mycol. 8: 139. 1916) sowed aecia from Hydrophyllum 
capitatum on Agropyron tenerum and Elymus virginicus. On the for- 
mer uredinia and telia developed, and on the latter a few uredinia only. 
This is the only successful culture with this species, though aecia on 
other Hydrophyllaceae and on Boraginaceae are referred here on 
morphological grounds. ;

On ALLIACEAE: 
Allium Geyert Wats.—Blue Mts., July 5, 1897, W. C. Cusick, 1627. 
The writer is indebted to Professor Holway for the specimen on 
which this record is based. 
138. PUCCINIA MADIAE Syd. Monog. Ured. I: 121. 1902. 
ON CARDUACEAE: 
Madia elegans Don.—Corvallis, June, 1910, 2679. 
Madia glomerata Hook.—Corvallis, Aug. 1899, E. R. Lake. 
Madia sp.—Hood River, June 20, 1914, 3349. 
This species is very close to, and possibly identical with, P. Hemi- 
zontae (cf. 113).

No culture work has been conducted in America. Plowright 
(Jour. Linn. Soc. Lond. 20: 511. 1884) has shown the aecia to be A. 
Bellidis, having cultured the species in both directions. Other Euro- 
pean workers have confirmed Plowright’s results (Klebahn, Die 
Wirtsw. Rostp. 317. 1904).
