April to June. 
BioLocy.—The sori occur upon pale spots on the leaves and stems ; 
on the latter, they cause elongated distortions. This species was at 
one time considered to be the teleutospores of £cédium ficaria, until 
Schroter (Cohn’s “ Beitrage,” vol. ii. pt. iii. p. 63) worked out the life- 
history of the Ranunculus 4cidia. 
Uromyces scillarum. (Grev.) 
Teleutospores—Sori amphigenous, brown, arranged more or less

uniformly thick, smooth, brown epispore, apex rounded or 
flattened, 20-30 X 15-204. Pedicels short, slender, deciduous.
