FHlemiuromyces. 135 
BIOLOGY.—The mycelium of the teleutospores permeates the 
whole plant. The foliage of the affected plants is altered by its 
presence, being shorter, broader, and thicker ; moreover, they seldom 
blossom. The sori are scattered over the whole plant. Winter con- 
siders this species to belong to Hemiuromyces, Schréter that it is 
without uredospores. It is doubtfully British. 
Uromyces anthyllidis. (Grev.) 
Uredospores—Sori roundish, chestnut-brown. Spores subglobose,
