The teleutospores, as they are termed, are for the greater part rounded 

 orobovate (25-35 x 20-32 p), with the surface warted and of a brownish- 

 yellow colour. They germinate after the manner of those of Puccinia. 



The species is known over the greater part of Northern Europe.

Honeysuckle Leaf- spot. 

 Phyllosticta Loniccrce (West), PI. III. fig. 56. 



The Honeysuckle may claim to be a garden flower, and is certainly a 

 favourite in cottage gardens. The leaf-spots are rounded and pallid, with 

 a brown margin, and the perithecia are quite small, appearing like very 

 minute dots upon the spots. 



The sporules are rather large for the genus to which they belong, 

 and are narrowly elliptical, with two nuclei (10-14x2^-3.^ p), and 

 colourless. 



The spot is known also in France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Italy, 

 Portugal, and the United States of North America. 

 Sacc. Syll. iii. 90 ; Cooke Hdbk. No. 1353. 



A similar leaf -spot with large brownish spots, and very minute 

 sporules, P. tiitidzda, is found in Algeria, whilst another species with 

 greyish spots, P. Caprifolii, occurs in Italy, France, and Siberia. 



Species with two-celled sporules are known, one in France and one 

 in Italy, as well as another in Belgium. 



Two species with thread-like sporules are also known, the one in 

 Switzerland and the other in Portugal.
