64 SEMI-CENTENNIAL OF TORREY BOTANICAL CLUB 
Ficus heterophylla. Balut Island, Merrill 5422, October, 1906, 
on leaves of Ficus Minahassae. 
The only distinction between the species Phyllachora Kaern- 
bach, P. Fici-fulvae and P. Minahassae appears to be age of 
infection and hostal in nature. In cases where the deaf infections 
are few and scattered we have one species but if they have become 
numerous and coalescent with apparently a more even distribution 
of the fungus stroma we have, according to report, another. The 
spore and stroma characters in these three species show no specific 
distinctions. 
Collected in Java, New Guinea, and the Philippine Islands. 
CHAETOMIUM Kunze 
CHAETOMIUM STERCOREUM Speg. Michelia 1: 222. 1877. 
Luzon, vicinity of Manila, Bur. Sci. 16071 P. W. Graff, Sep- 
tember, 1912, on horse-dung. 
The characters of this collection seem to fit in with Spegaz- 
zini’s species more closely than any other and any differences are 
. not distinct enough to warrant a separation from it. 
This seems to be a fungus of very general distribution.
