1144. Gleosporium umbrinellum, n.s. Maculis irregularibus 
angulatis brunneis; sporis pallidis. , 
‘tae fallen oak-leaves. Charmy Down, near Batheaston, Oct. 
65. 
Forming minute brown spots; spores binucleate, ‘0004— 
‘0006 inch long, supported on long, often forked, sporophores, 
at length oozing out in the form of a pale irregular tendril. 
Puate III. fig. 5. Spores supported on their sporophores; and separate, 
more highly magnified. 
1145. Sporidesmium opacum, Cd. Fase. i. f. 115. 
On stumps of wych elm, near St. Catharines, March 31, 1865. 
C. E. Broome. 
When young, forming small, round, cinereous tufts, sparingly 
scattered over the wood. 
This has been received from Mr. Bloxam under the name of 
S. fasciculatum; but it does not agree with Corda’s character, 
‘sors effusis.” 
PuaTE III. fig. 6. Spores and sporophores, magnified. 
1146. S. lobatum, n.s. Stipite articulato, deorsum hyalino, 
sursum in articulos subquaternos subglobosos divisum. 
On fir sticks. Lucknam, April 12, 1865. 
Forming minute, black, pulvinate tufts. At first simple and 
strongly swollen above. The upper articulation then divides, 
and ultimately gives off the spores, which are ‘0006 inch long. 
The whole plant is about ‘001 high. 
Puate III. fig. 7. Spores in various stages, magnified. 
1147. Puccinia Apii, Cd. Fase. vi. tab. 1. fig. 11. 
On celery, about London, Sept. 1865, destroying the crops. 
Plants sent down to Cambridgeshire were equally affected. For 
further notice see Journ. Hort. Soc, n.s. vol. i. 1866. 
1148. Thecaphora hyalina, Fingerh. in Linn. x. p. 230 
(Uredo Seminis Convolvuli, Desm. no. 274). 
In the capsules of Convolvulus Soldanella. King’s Lynn, 
J. Lowe, Esq. 
* Stilbum fasciculatum, B. & Br. no. 492. 
This is clearly what is figured by Tulasne as a state of his 
Sporostilbe gracilipes, Carp. iii. tab. 14. figs. 14-19. 
1149. Rhinotrichum repens, Preuss in St. Deutsch. Fl. 25 & 
26, no. 22.
