NEW OR NOTEWORTHY FUNGI 11 



of Chelmsley Wood (Wk.) a large quantity of Puccinia Fenjussoni. 

 The sori (of teleutospores only) were clustered in large patches 

 1|— 2 CEQ. in diameter, the rest of the leaf heing unoccupied. 

 Curiously enough, the edges of the same marsh were fringed with 

 Viola sylvatica, on which was Puccinia violce, with its minute sori 

 of uredo- and teleutospores scattered with great uniformity over 

 the whole lamina ; the contrast between the two species was thus 

 shown very clearly. 



139. OosPORA HYALiNULA Sacc. Syll. Fung. iv. 17 ; Fung. Ital. 

 t. 878. 



Very thinly effused; conidiophores erect, simple, short, passing 

 almost at once into chains of conidia 30-70 /x long. Conidia 

 oblong or shortly cjiindrical, obtuse at both ends, 4-1^ x 2-2^ [x, 

 hyahne. (Tab. 515, fig. 1.) 



On dead ash branches, Studley Castle, March. This species 

 is very similar to 0. cuboidea Sacc. efc EU. It should be compared 

 also with Geotrichum candidum, forma phytogena Sacc. (/. c. 

 p. 39), but seems to be much more delicate and fugitive than 

 either of these. 



110. GospoRA ocHRACEA (Coi'da) Sacc. Syll. Fung. iv. 23. 

 Tufts roundish, gregarious, rosy-ochraceous ; mycelium very 



white, thin, floccose, radiating ; erect hyphee short, simple, con- 

 tinuous, bearing erect chains of spores, slightly longer than the 

 hyphae. Conidia spherical or very slightly cuboid, 3-5-1 /x diam., 

 rosy-ochraceous, equal. 



On remnants of extract of malt in a bottle, Lower Edmonton, 

 Mr. James Scott, September. In a good light the rosy tinge was 

 quite evident, but the first appearance of the mass was more 

 of a (true) isabeUine colour. Corda's specimens were on the 

 thickened juice of elder. 



111. OosPORA suLPHURELLA S. et E. Syll. Fung. iv. 21 ; Trans. 

 Brit. Myc. Soc. ii. 167. 



At first in small tufts, then eft'used and velvety, pale sulphur- 

 yeUow. Sterile hyphae creeping, whitish ; fertile erect, very short, 

 yeUow ; conidia ellipsoid, 3-1 X 2 /x, yellow, in short chains. 



On dead oak-wood, Boston, Lanes., Sir Henry Haicley. 



112. MoNiLiA LUPULi Mass. in litt. Grove, Journ. Econ. Biol, 

 vi. pt. 2, p. 12, figs. 1-8 (1911). 



Forming an effused farinaceous stratum of a fine pinkish- 

 salmon colour. Fertile hyphas |-1 mm. high, erect, slender, 

 branched above, branches rather divaricate, chains of spores also 

 branched in the same manner. Diameter of hyphae 5 //. Conidia 

 roundish or elliptical, nearly hyaline (singly), 7-9 x 1 /x. 



In breweries, on the surface of spent Hops. It looks like a 

 salmon-coloured dust.

Several large patches of this species occurred on burnt heathy 

 ground at Eomsley, Clent (Ws.), closely resembling the specimens 

 found in Sutton Park nine years before, but differing in several
