giniana, Campus, October 5, 1915. Associated with Pestalozzia funerea 

 Desm. Peck reports Phyllosticta consocia Pk. as being associated with this 

 Pestalozzia and describes the spot as the same and the Phyllosticta as the 

 cause. However, P. consocia is described as having six cells with four 

 middle ones colored and as being 30 to 35 microns long; setae, 22.5 to 27.5 

 long. Our spores are about 25 microns long with short setae. Spores, five- 

 celled, the three inner being colored. This Phyllosticta is very similar if 

 not identical with P. sphaeropsidea E. & E. (Bull. Torr. Bot. Club. 1883, 

 p. 97.) Reported on Aesculus hippocastanum. 



Phyllosticta kalmicola (Schw.) E. & E. On living leaves of Kalmia 

 latifolia, one-half mile northeast of Borden, Clark county, February 20, 

 1915. 



Phyllosticta linderae E. & E. On Lindera benzoin, Brown county, July, 

 1912. 



Phyllosticta sambuci Desm. On leaves of Sambucus canadensis, Campus, 

 October 5, 1915. The pycnidia are described as being very minute. In our 

 specimens, they measure from 90 to 200 microns with spores 4 to 7 by 2 to 

 2\ microns. 



Phyllosticta sambucicola Kalchbr. On the same host as the above and 

 associated with it as was also Cercospora sambucina and a Septoria. The 

 pycnidia are 50 to 90 microns and spores 2| to 5 microns. The spores are 

 subglobose. Kalchbrenner describes them as being very minute. 



Septoria evonymi Rabh. On Evonymus atropurpurius, Campus, October 

 5, 1915. Our. species is undoubtedly identical with the one described by 

 Rabenhorst, though differing somewhat. The following is a description of 

 our fungus: Spots epiphyllous, 3 to 10 microns in diameter or by confluence, 

 covering large areas, irregular in shape, often limited by veins making them 

 angular in outline, olive brown, bounded by a dark purplish line, lighter 

 colored on the lower surface of the leaf; pycnidia 75 to 125 microns in diam- 

 eter, black, protruding and with a large irregular opening; spores 15 to 30 

 by 2 to 3 microns, for the most part one-septate, straight, crescent-shaped 

 or irregularly curved. 



Septoria helianthi Ell. & Kell. On Helianthus annuus, autumn of 1912. 



Septoria lactucae Pass. Common on Lactuca scariola, Harrodsburg, 

 August 7, 1915. Spores filiform, 20 to 35 by 1| to 2 microns. 



Septoria mimuli Wint. On leaves of Mimulus alatus, summer of 1911. 

 Sutton.
