5. Camarosporium wistarianum sp. nov. 



Pycnidia immersed then erumpent through longitudinal rifts 

 in the elevated bark, scattered or gregarious, globose, ostiolate, 

 black, 130-175^ in diameter; spores numerous, ellipsoid or 

 fusoid-oblong, rounded at the ends, not usually constricted but 

 occasionally deeply, constricted at the middle, and then separable, 

 3-5 septate, one or more of the cells with a longitudinal septum, 

 hyaline, then brown, 17-25 X 6-9 /x. 



On dead branches of cultivated Wistaria, Lyndonville, N. Y., 

 June, 191 5, Charles E. Fairman. 



6. Rhabdospora translucens sp. nov. 



Pycnidia immersed then erumpent, soft, membranaceous, 

 under the microscope translucent, black, 150-300^ in diameter, 

 filled with numerous spores which are simple, curved, crescentic 

 or fusoid, always narrowed toward the ends, sessile or with in- 

 distinct basidia, hyaline, 23-33 X 2-3 /jl. 



On dead branches of Tecoma radicans (L.) DC, Lyndonville, 

 N. Y., May, 191 6, Charles E. Fairman. 



7. Microdiplodia Diervillae sp. nov. 



Pycnidia associated with, and resembling in every way those 

 of Sphaeropsis Diervillae; spores oblong-ellipsoid, rounded at the 

 ends, straight or curved, not constricted, hyaline at first, then 

 becoming olivaceous, or very light brown, 7-10 X 3~4-5 /<•• 



On dead branches of Diervilla Diervilla (L.) MacM., Lyndon- 

 ville, N. Y., Charles E. Fairman. 



The color of the spores resembles Diplodia hyalospora C. &. E. 



8. Hendersonia hortilecta sp. nov. 



Pycnidia numerous, depressed-globose, centrally ostiolate, 

 black, 175-200^ in diameter; spores oblong-fusoid, 3-6-septate, 

 the middle cells largest, more or less constricted at the septa, and 

 when deeply constricted at the septa appearing subtorulose, hya- 

 line then brown, 17-27 X S~7 >• 



On dead branches of Clematis paniculata in a garden, Lyndon- 

 ville, N. Y., May, 191 5, Charles E. Fairman. 



Obs. The spores vary considerably from slightly constricted 

 to torulose, and 3-5-septate. LTsually they are 3-septate and not 

 constricted.
