ters of these two fungi arc as follows: — 



Septoria sojina Tluim. 



I. Pycnidia epiplu'llous 



conico-crlobose 



2. Conidia 



3. Spots 



cylindrical to subcuneal 



I septate 



12-18 X 4,5-5,0 n 



irregular in shape 



bordered 



Other species of Septoria which are parasitic on the lea\'cs of leguminous 

 plants, differ from the present fungus also in the macroscopical or microscopical 

 appearances. From the foregoing statements, I consider the present fungus to be 

 a new species, and the following diagnosis is given. 



Septoria sp. 

 amphigenous 

 globose to conico-globose 

 44- I 00 n 

 filiform 

 c-3 septate 

 21,0-52,5 X 1,4-2,1 n 

 mostly angular 

 unbordered 



Septoria Glycines Hemmi, sp. n. 



Spots amphigenous, at first angular, brown to reddish brown, unbordered, at 

 last dark brown or blackish brown, having greyish center, scattered or gregarious, 

 often confluent, commonly 2—3 mm. in diameter; pycnidia amphigenous, mostly 

 epiphyllous, scattered, globose or conico-globose, membranaceous, brown or dark 

 brown, 44-100 ii in diameter, at first covered by epidermis, then erumpent; spores 

 hyaline, filiform, more or less cur\-cd, or sometimes straight, smooth, guttulate, 

 obscurely septated, 1-4 celled, 21.0-52.5 [t long, 1.4-2. 1 n broad.
