This is very similar to Aecidium Urticae Selium., which is connected 

 with Pticcinia Caricis (Schum.) Schrot. on Carer, except for having 

 smaller aeciospores and peridia more delicate in general. Repeated trial 

 sowings of Puccinia Caricis on Boehmeria have uniformly failed, while 

 infections have been easily obtained on Urtica. This species of Aecidium 

 is therefore no doubt distinct and may belong with some other Carcx- 

 iuhabiting Puccinia.

 other than a grass or sedge.
