GRAFF: PHILIPPINE MICROMYCETOUS FUNGI 71 
PESTALOzzIA de Notaris 
PESTALOZZIA PALMARUM Cooke, Grevillea 4:115. 1875. 
Luzon, Province of Laguna, Mount Maquiling, Merrill 8646, 
March, 1913, on leaves of Pinanga sp. 
А very common leaf-spot is also caused by this fungus on Cocos 
nucifera, which in severe cases must impoverish the tree. Very 
severe attacks of this disease have been observed by the writer in 
the cocoanut districts of Laguna and Tayabas Provinces and the 
northern portion of the island of Mindoro. 
. This fungus is of common distribution in the Asiatic tropics.

Luzon, Manila, Merrill 8369, March 12, I9I2, on leaves of 
Oxalis repens.

Oxalis corniculata in Victoria, Australia. 
ASPERGILLUS Link 
ASPERGILLUS PERICONIOIDES басс. Ann. Myc. 11: 320. 1913. 
Luzon, Province of Bataan, Lamao, Bur. Sci. S136 P. w. 
Graff, November, 1912, on living leaves of Carica Papaya. 
This fungus is a parasitic species which has been found to 
attack the leaves of the papaya and, in some cases, apparently 
resulting in considerable damage to the host. Some of the plants 
from which this collection was made were losing their leaves in 
serious numbers. The infection spots spread till the entire leaf 
becomes involved and premature leaf fall follows. 
Not reported as yet outside the Philippines.
