 the Torrey Botanical Club this fall. As it will be several months 

 before this paper can appear in print, it was thought advisable 

 to call attention to the facts at this time. While connection 

 between Botrytis and Sderotinia has been claimed by DeBary 

 and predicted by more recent workers, this is one of the first 

 and possibly the first case in which the connection has been 



definitely established by culture experiments.

 not known in these regions from south of Nova Scotia."

'' {Utricularia clandestina Nutt.)"!
