UBEDO 



Under this form genus are grouped the uredinial stages of certain 

 species for which the mature stages are unknown. 



185. Uredo Acaenae Ell. and Ev. 



N. A. Fungi, no. 3150, 1894. 



On Acaena tridactyla Presl., frequent in the bay region. Arthur 

 (N. A. Flora, vol. 7, p. 174) takes this to be uredinia of Phragmidium 

 Ivesiae Sydow.

Erythea, vol. 7, p. 98, 1899. 

 On Gaillardia, aristata Pursh, Dunsmuir (Holway). 



187. Uredo Nicotianae Arthur, sp. nov. 



Uredinia mostly hypophyllus, scattered upon discolored areas 1 to 

 1.5 cm. across, round, 0.2 to 0.5 mm. in diameter, early naked, applan- 

 ate, subepidermal, pulverulent, pale cinnamon to whitish, ruptured 

 epidermis evident ; urediniospores globoid to broadly ellipsoid, 23 to 

 26/x by 24 to 32/t; wall colorless, 1.5 to 5/t thick, closely and coarsely 

 verrucose, the pores obscure.* Collected in small amount at Rionido 

 on Nicotiana Bigelowii Wats. The spores resemble those of a Coleo- 

 sporium, although not in well defined chains.
