52, THIRTY-SECOND REPORT ON THE STATE MUSEUM.. 
SPHZRIA (CERATOSTOM#) SUBDENUDATA 7. sp. 
Perithecia immersed or superficial, subglobose, .02'—.025’ broad, black, 
sometimes bearing a few scattered straight black hairs; ostiola cylindrical, 
straight or slightly curved, blunt, sometimes oblique, in length equal to or a 
little shorter than the diameter of the perithecia; asci cylindrical; spores 
uniseriate, simple, oblong-elliptical, uninucleate, colorless, .0005/—.00055' 
long, .0002’ broad. 
Much decayed wood. Catskill Mountains. Sept. 
This species, by reason of its somewhat hairy perithecia, might be sought 
among the Villose. The perithecia are sometimes deeply sunk in the soft 
matrix, and have only the ostiola exposed, again they are nearly or quite 
superficial. 
SPHAZRIA LIVIDA f7. 
Dry hard hemlock knots. Catskill Mountains. July. 
Sew#rRIA (CAULICOLZ) HUMULINA 1%. sp. 
Perithecia small, slightly prominent, covered by the blackened epidermis ; 
ostiola minute, piercing the epidermis; asci cylindrical; spores uniseriate, 
elliptical, triseptate, colorless, .0006° long, .0003’ broad. 
Dead hop stems. Carlisle. June. 
SPH#RIA INFECTORIA F'chl. 
Culms and sheaths of Calamagrostis arenaria. Buffalo, Oct. Clinton. 
SPHHRELLA Peck Spegaz. 
Fallen leaves of Amelanchier Canadensis. Center. May. 
SPHZRELLA SEPTORIOIDES 7. sp. 
Spots few, orbicular, angular or irregular, white; perithecia numerous 
minute, hypophyllous, black ; asci oblong ; spores crowded, uniseptate, color- 
less, .0005! long, the two cells nearly equal. 
Living leaves of Thalictrum dioicum. Central Bridge. June. 
The spots are very white, and so thin that the perithecia show through the 
tissues of the leaf. The external resemblance to species of Septoria suggests 
the specific name, 
REMARKS AND OBSERVATIONS. 
VIOLA BLANDA Willd. 
A noticeable form of this violet occurs about Albany. It has the calyx 
peduncles and petioles tinged with dull red, the flowers rather large, the petals 
scarcely greenish at the base, and the fragrance wanting. The leaves are 
sometimes rather coarsely hairy.
