No. 5.] USTILAGINEZ OF CONNECTICUT. 35 
Host and Distr.: Zigania aquatica, New Haven, 1892 
(Setchell) ; Whitneyville, July 24, 1902; Montowese, Oct. 18, 
1902; Westville, Aug. 21, 1903. 
Entyloma crastophilum Sacc.. This species is closely re- 
lated to the preceding, but differs in, its slightly smaller sori 
and somewhat darker colored spores which are 8-14p in length. 
Host and Distr.: Holcus lanatus, West Haven, July 23, 
1903; Undetermined grass, West Haven, Aug. 12, 1903. 
Both this and the preceding species differ from the ordinary 
Entylomas in their darker colored spores. 
Entyloma Thalictri.Schrét. The sori are found in the 
leaves, forming small, angular, yellowish or reddish spots 
about I-2 mm. in diameter, or by ‘confluence becoming more 
extended and indefinite. The spores are hyaline or yellowish, 
ovoid to subspherical or occasionally somewhat angled and 
more irregular, thin-walled to medium thick-walled, smooth, 
and 8-13 in length. The conidia are apparently produced on 
the under surface of the sori. 
Host and Distr.: Thalictrum polygamum, Montowese, 
Sept. 14, 1903. 
This species is not very common, and has been reported on 
the above host only from this state. 
Entyloma Lobeliz Farl. Figs. 17, 31. The sori form 
conspicuous whitish or yellowish areas in the leaves, and are 
I-I0 mm. in diameter. The spores are hyaline or yellowish 
tinted, oblong to subspherical or somewhat angled, rather 
thick-walled, and 11-15 in length. The conidia form a whit- 
ish growth on the under surface of the sori, and are fusiform, 
and 10-25p by 2-3, in size. 
Host and Distr.: Lobelia inflata, Hamden, Sept. 11, 1902; 
Hartford, Oct. 20, 1902; Cheshire, Aug. 3, 1903; Yalesville, 
Oct. 14, 1904. 
This is probably the most common Entyloma occurring in 
the New England states, but so far it has been found only on 
the above species of Lobelia. 
Entyloma Physalidis (K. & C.) Wint. Fig. 34. The 
sori form at first yellowish, but later darker colored, roundish 
or angular spots from 34-6 mm. in diameter. The spores vary 
from slightly tinted to light or reddish yellow, are ovoid, spher-
