188 PUCCINIA 
The ecidium of P. Conopodti-Bistortae (q.v.) is sometimes to be found 
on the same plant as the teleuto-sori of P. twmida, though it is much rarer. 
Plowright mentions that, though the Puccinia is very common round 
King’s Lynn, he could never find the ecidium which he at that time 
wrongly supposed to be connected with it. See also Puccinia Bulbocastant.

Spermogones. Amphigenous, mostly scattered amongst the 
xcidia, pale-yellowish. 
Aicidiospores. AKcidia hypophyllous, in smaller or larger 
groups, often along the nerves and causing slight hypertrophy, 
between cup-shaped and pustulate, with a whitish irregularly 
cut margin; spores verruculose, subhyaline, 20—28 yu. 
Uredospores. Sori hypophyllous, scattered, minute, pul- 
verulent, cinnamon; spores globose to 
ellipsoid, echinulate, brown, 22—32 x 
20—26 p, with two (rarely three) germ- 
pores. 
Teleutospores. Sori similar, but 
blackish-brown; spores ellipsoid, rounded

Acidia, May and June; teleutospores, July—October. (Fig.

Very similar to P. Chaerophylli ; distinguished from it especially by 
the uredospores, which have for the most part a thicker and darker 
membrane with only two germ-pores. The peridium of the ecidia is
