perithecium, usually fasciculate by irregularly bending near the base, 

 and clustered towards one side, very distinct from the mycelium. Asci 

 3-5 pedicellate. Sporidia 4-6, 22-30 n long. 



On Cornus sanguinea, Missouri (Tracy and Galloway). 



This is here included solely upon the authority given, and appar- 

 ently upon one collection. In Europe the fungus is common on the 

 same host, and as this is abundant in cultivation with us, it is alto- 

 gether probable that this parasite may be frequently found. It is very 

 distinct from those forms of ^. communis with long appendages, as on 

 Clematin. These latter have indeed been referred to E. toHilis, 

 evidently by mistake.

Amphigenous. Mycelium abundant, persistent, haustoria rounded, 

 not lobed. Perithecia variable ; appendages numerous, mostly short, 

 1-2 times the diameter of the perithecium, hyaline or mostly colored, 

 mucli bent and intei'woven with the mycelium. Asci variable, mostly 

 numerous, 4 or 5 to 20. Sporidia large, quite ^uniformly 2, but occa- 

 sionally varying to 3, or even 4 (on Bigelovia 5 or 6).
