30 PLANTS BAKERIAN.E. 



within and without, divided by a distinct darker line from 

 the pale-yellow sterile basal portion; conidiophores very 

 long, somewhat curved, simple, 80-150/A or more by 2/x.; 

 conidia borne laterally, oval, hyaline, ends obtuse, about 



Common on dead stems of Sambucus, near Pagosa Peak, 

 9,000 feet, 25 Aug.; n. 73. 



This is easily distinguished from T. Sambucina by the 

 larger softer sporodoche, the larger thicker conidiophores 

 and the much larger conidia. In specimens of the latter 

 species examined from Europe and from Wisconsin the 

 conidia are only 5-6x1 Jyu,. 



TUBERCULARIA, sp. ? On dead branches of oak, Hermosa' 

 30 March; n. 74. 



This is a very peculiar fungus. The large 2-3mm. sporo- 

 doches swarm with motile bacteria-like bodies. The coni- 

 diophores seem to be only 8 12xl/* and variously branched 

 or united. The conidia are about 2-3x1 p. It is externally 

 brown, but vermilion-red within, and crumbling to a red 

 powder. It suggests the red stroma of some Endothia-like 

 fungus rather than a Tubercularia, but no perithecia could 

 be detected.
