276 PUCCINIA 
ovate, yellow, faintly echinulate, 20—25 x 16—22 ~; membrane 
colourless. 
Teleutospores. Sori hypophyllous, minute, covered by the 
epidermis, oblong or linear, rarely confluent, black; spores 
somewhat clavate, rounded, truncate or gently narrowed above, 
slightly thickened (about 5), faintly constricted, narrowed 
below, smooth, brown, darker upwards, 38—48 x 12—20,; 
pedicels very short. 
Acidia on Aquilegia vulgaris, Lewes, Sussex ; Lake Win- 
dermere; Wyre Forest, etce., May, June; uredo- and teleuto- 
spores on leaves and sheaths of Agrostis alba, A. vulgaris, 
August. Uncommon. The Puccinia should be looked for on 
the grass near the place where the eecidium was seen. 
The connection between the ecidium on Aguilegia and the Puccinia 
on Agrostis was first demonstrated by Plowright (see Gard. Chron. 1890, 
ii, 139, and 1891, i. 683); the fact has since been confirmed and extended 
to Aqualegia alpinu. McAlpine’s species seems to be rather different ; he 
records numerous mesospores, and uredospores with as many as nine 
germ-pores, circularly arranged, on one face. 
DistRIBUTION : Central and Western Europe, Siberia, India, 
and (?) Australia.
