260. Entyloma besseyi Farlow {E. physalidis Wint., Protomyces physali- 



disK. &C.?). 



On Physalis, sp. Madison; La Crosse, Pammel, 

 The description does not allow it to be distinguished from the African 

 species described by Kalchbrenner and Cooke (Grevillea, IX., 22). 



261. Entyloma microspoeum (Ung.). 



On leaf and petiole of Ranunculus fascictdaris Muhl. Stoughton. 



262. Entyloma menispermi Farlow and Trelease. 



In leaves of Menisperinum canadensel,. Madison; Hokah, Minn., 

 Painme\ 



263. Entyloma thalictri Schroeter (?). 



In leaves of Thalictrum dioicum L. Common in the falL Madison. 



This seems to be distinct from E. ranunculi (Bonord.), to which it was 



doubtfully referred by Farlow (Botanical Gazette, August, 1883). Having 



seen no description of Schroeter's species, however, I can only assume that 



the two may be identical. 



264. DOASSANSIA ALISMATIS (Fr.). 



In leaves of Alisma plantago L., var. americana Gray, and Sagitta- 

 ria variabilis Engelm. Madison. 

 The young spots in spring are white, and look like those of an Entyloma. 

 The conidia on Sagittaria are hyaline, cylindrical or fusiform, 1-celled, and 

 measure 2-8 X 12-20 /i. 



265. Urocystis anemones (Pers.) (U. pompholygodes Schl.). 



In stems and leaves of Anemone nemorosa L. and A., dichotoma 

 L. Madison; La Crosse, Pammel. 



.'266. Urocystis occulta (Wall.). 



In leaves of Elymus canadensis L. Stoughton. 



267. Entomophthora muscae (Cohn). 



Very common, on house flies, in fall. Madison, Syene. 

 The common fall disease of flies. The tarichium state of E. calopteni 

 Busey will probably be found here in the lai'ger grasshopper {Caloptenus 

 differentialis). 



THELEPHOREAE. 



268. Exobasidi-um vaccinii Wor. 



On GaylussaciaresinosaTovr. & Gray and Vaccinium, sp. Kirkland, 

 La Crosse, Pammel. Also collected on the last-named host at 

 Hokah, Minn., by Mr. Pammel. 

 Undoubtedly occurs on the cranberry and other Ericaceae here as else 

 "where.
