Megalonectria Sacc. 
Megalonectria pseudotrichia (Schw.) Speg. 
On host not named. Pueblo Viejo (Stevenson) 5064. 
Specimens 1569 and 1193 had no perithecia but a Stilbum 
which is probably the conidial stage of Megalonectria pseudo- 
trichia.

This sclerotial stage of Claviceps is as common on Paspalum 
plicatulum in Porto Rico as it is on P. laeve and P. dilatatum in 
the States. The species is very probably either C. paspali S. & 
H. or C. rolfsti S. & H.’ but which of these it is impossible to 
determine without germinating the sclerotia, which was not 
done.
