In New England, tliis is often preceded by an aecidium, according to Dr, 

 Farlow. 



188. PucciNiA FUSCA (Relhan) (P. anemones P.)- 



Teleutos pores very abundant, in spring, on Anemone nemorosa L. 

 Madison. 

 The aecidium occurring simultaneously on the same species is A. xmnc- 

 tatuvi Pers., and not A. leucospermum D C, which is said by European 

 authorities to be a stage of this species. It is frequently associated with 

 Peronospora pygmaea Ung. and Urocystis anemones (Pers.), but I have 

 never seen it on the same leaf with the brown aecidium. 



189. PUCCINIA CONVOLVULI (P.). 



Aecidium {A. dubium Clinton, A. calystegiae Cast., A. convolvuli 

 Ces.), uredo and leleutospores on Convolvulus septum L, La- 

 Crosse, Pammel. 



190. PrcciNiA GALii (Pers.). 



Sptrmogonla on Galium aparine L., in May. Uredo and taleuto- 



spores on G. triflorum Michx., in summer and fall. Madison; La- 



Crosse, Pammel. 



The teleutospores are uniformly mor^ thickened at the apex, and more 



clavate in general outhne than those of P. valantiae Pers., to which the 



American form has sometimes been referred. The presence of uredo- 



spores is also characteristic, and the occurrence of spermogonia indicates 



that the aecidium will ultimately be found, although I am not aware that 



it has yet been recorded in this country. 



191. Puccini A pimpinellae (Strauss) (P. myrrhis Schw.). 



Aecidium, uredo and teleutospores on Osmorrhiza brevistylis D C. 

 Madison; Kirklanc', Pammel. 



192. PuccmiA MENTHAE Pers. 



Aecidium on Monarda fistulosa L. and Lycopiis europ)aeus L. Uredo 

 and teleutospores on Mentha canadensis L., Pycnantliemum lanceo- 

 latum Pursh, Monarda fistidosa L. and M. punctata L. Madison; 

 Sauk City, Ltiders; La Ci'osse, and Hokah, Minn., Pammel. 



193. PUCCINIA GENTIANAE (StrauSS). 



Uredo and teleutospores on Gentiana andreivsii Griseb., in autumn. 

 Madison. 



194. PucciNiA FLOSCULOSORUM (A. & S.) (P. compositamm Schl., P. vaHa- 



bilis Grev., P. hieracii Mart.). 

 Uredo and teleutospores on Taraxacum dens-leonis Desf., Hieraciuim, 

 cinadense Mx., H. scdbruni Mx., Cnicus altissimusWilld., C. lance- 

 olatus Hoffm. and C. discolor Muhl. Madison; Devil's Lake, 

 Pammel.
