Stage was formerly called the genus TJredo (Fig. 258). The 



iiredo-spores germinate quickly, and from their mycelium 

 other uredo-spores are produced, and this process may con- 

 tinue a great length of time. Finally, from the same 

 mycelium, are produced (Fig. 259) thick-walled, brown 

 or black spores, called teleutospores (Gr. teleuta, end), 

 which may be one-celled (as in Uromyces and Melamp- 

 Bord), two-celled (as in Pucdnia, Fig. 259 ; and Podisoma,
