"Perithecia buried as in Sphceria Berkeley! (Diaporthe). Osti- 

 ola emergent Sporidia allantoid, minute. 



On Smilax, Car. Inf. No. 1882." 



Sphceria (Eutypa)? oppanm, Fr. S. M. II, p. 374. Covered. 

 effused. Perithecia scattered, subcircinate, delicate, Mack, joined in ;i 

 pale membranaceous crust, ostiola erumpent. The crust seems to be 

 formed from a gelatinous substance. Perithecia solitary or irregularly 

 circinate, readily collapsing. Differs from Eu. lata in the nature of 

 the perithecia and color of the crust. 



Found (sec. Schw.) on willow bark, Bethlehem, Pa. 



Sphceria (Eutypa) subentanea, Wahl. Fr. S. M. 1 1, p. 371. This 

 is quoted by Schw. as found under the epidermis of young branches of 

 Hibes at Bethlehem, Pa., but the spec, in Herb. Schw. seems to lie the 

 same as Diatrype Dearnessli, E. & E., in N. A. F. 2526, sporidia 

 5x1 //. The Sphceria subcutanea, Wahl., is under the epidermis of 

 willow and has (sec. Sacc. in Syll.) sporidia 12-14 x3-3| /i. 



CALOSPHJERIA, Tul. 



Sel. Carp. II, p. 108. 



Stroma none. Perithecia free or seated on the inner bark, scat- 

 tered or oftener collected in more or less distinctly circinate groups. 

 Ostiola more or less elongated. Asci clavate, generally racemose-fas- 

 ciculate, sessile or stipitate, mostly 8-spored. Paraphyses mostly much 

 longer than the asci, stout, lanceolate, evanescent. Sporidia mostly 

 small, cylindrical, curved, hyaline, continuous.

Perithecia lying on the surface of the inner bark in orbicular 

 or elliptical groups, generally densely crowded, globose, smooth and 

 shining. Necks very long, decumbent, llexuous. cylindrical, with their 

 ostiola directed towards transverse cracks in the epidermis, erumpent 

 and more or less exserted and obtuse. Asci clavate. with long and 

 slender pedicels, p. sp. 18-26x4 /;, 8-spored, overtopped by the long 

 paraphyses. Sporidia loosely conglomerated, cylindrical, curved, hya- 

 line, 5-6 x 1$ fjt.
