minutely verrucose, 18-25 XI 7-204. Teleutospores: sori am- 
phigenous, mostly around the aecidial groups, reddish brown, 
pulverulent, first covered by the elevated epidermis, soon 
naked, irregular in form and size, measuring from 1-6". 
Spores rounded at the apex and base, distinctly constricted at 
the septum, with a tuberculated epispore, apical thickening 
little or none, 32-46X21-31p. Pedicels hyaline, very decidu- 
ous, as long as the spores. Unicellular spores are of fre-

This is the third Puccinia known at the present time on 
Pedicularis. The other two are Puccinia Clintoni Peck on 
Pedicularis Canadensis in America, and Puccinia Pediculans 
Thiim. on Pedicularis Géderi in Asia. The American species 
differs in having a smooth epispore with a papilla at the apex, 
the Asiatic by the form of the teleutospores. In neither have 
ecidia been observed.
