48 TWENTY-NINTH REPORT ON THE STATE MUSEUM. 
Living leaves of Zrilliwm erythrocarpum. Pine Valley. Clinton. 
July. 
The tissues at length fall out from the affected spot, leaving aper- 
tures through the leaf. The perithecia are less regularly disposed 
near the center of the spots. Judge Clinton also sends a variety on 
leaves of Viola rotundzfolia in which the concentric arrangement of 
the perithecia is not at all perceptible, but I detect no other difference. 
Discosta FaciIngEA Lib. 
Fallen beech leaves. Portville. September. 
Discosta rucuLosa B. & C. 
Leaves of hickory, Carya alba. Chautauqua Lake. Clinton. 
Metasmia ALNEA Lev. 
Living leaves of alder, Alnus serrulata. Center. August. 
SEPTORIA CERASINA 2. Sp. 
Spots scattered or cenfluent, rather small, subangular, brown or 
reddish-brown ; perithecia few, collapsed when dry, appearing as if 
margined, pallid or amber-colored; tendrils whitish ; spores long, 
filiform, generally strongly curved, .002—.003' long. 
Lower surface of cherry leaves, Prunus serotinus. Lake Pleasant. 
August. 
This is quite unlike PAyllosticta sanguinea Desm., as represented 
by specimens from the collection of that gentleman. Frequently 
only one perithecium occupies a spot.

Seproria EMAcULATA P. & C. n. sp.

curved or flexuous, usually containing several nucleoli, .002’-.0035' long. 
Pods and living leaves of Lathyrus palustris. Buffalo. Clinton.

The leaves are without spots. The perithecia appear on one or 
both surfaces.
