I: 234. 1900, 2: 225. 1910,'4: 18. 1912). Bethel (Phytopathasg 
92-94. 1917) has also conducted very extensive cultures and proven 
the genetic connection with aecia on many hosts. 
In 1915, Arthur. (Mycol. 8: 135. 1916), using telial material 
sent by the writer collected by Mr. C. C. Cate at LaGrand,- Ore., 
obtained the development of aecia on Chenopodium album. This is 
the only culture made with material from the Pacific coast. 
The aecia on Sarcobatus are included here on the strength of 
culture work conducted by Arthur, in which he obtained aecia on that 
host using telial material on Distichlis from Nevada. The matter is 
complicated by the fact that Bethel (1. c.) finds that the aecia on this 
host in Colorado go to P. luxuriosa (cf. 124) and P. subnitens can not 
be made to infect Sarcobatus. It is possible that the two species repre- 
sent closely related biological forms.

This micro-form is exceedingly abundant in western Oregon. This 
species is morphologically correlated with the telial stage of P. abun- 
dans (cf. 59), which has aecia on the same host, as has been pointed 
out by Travelbee (Proc. Ind. Acad. Sci. 1914: 233. 1915).
