 SCOTLAND— {concluded).

APPENDIX TO LIST OF UREDINE^E OF SCOTLAND. 



Since the publication in July of the above list I have to make a 

 few additions to the district-records therein contained. These are 

 as follows : — 



14. Uromyces Behenis (D.C). Add a Tay the sEcidium 

 was abundant in July on a plant of Silene maritima at St. 

 Cyrus ! 



23. Puccinia Porri (Sow.). Add "Tay;" not uncommon on 

 Allium vineale (new food plant in Scotland) at St. Cyrus, in 

 July ! 



27. P. Viol89 (Schum.). On Viola hirta (new food plant in Scot- 

 land). On Kinnoull Hill, near Perth, last autumn, and at 

 St. Cyrus in July ! 



66. P. Sonchi Rob. Add " Tay." Common in its earlier condi- 

 tions at St. Cyrus in July on Sonchus asper ! 



71. P. Schneideri Schroter. Add " Tay; " on Thymus Serpyllum, 

 in July, on the links of St. Cyrus ! 



74. P. paliformis Fckl. Add "Tay." On dry slopes, on 

 Kosleria cristata, July — Autumn. Kinnoull Hill ! 



89. P Mai vace arum Mont. Found on Hollyhock (Althcea 

 rosea), for the first time in Scotland, by Dr. Buchanan White, 

 at Craigo, near Montrose, in July ; and sent by him to me. I 

 have found this fungus plentifully in July and August, on 

 Malva sylvestris, in many places in Aberdeenshire. The 

 fungus very often attacks the fruiting carpels.

The facts that the Fungi of this family have in the past been 

 associated in systematic works with the Uredineae and that they 

 are included in Mr. Plowright's work afford sufficient reason for 

 placing them near the Uredineae in this revision. Since 1879 there 

 has been no attempt to bring together the species added to the 

 Scotch lists during the last decade, though these include several 

 very interesting forms, especially among the internal parasites. 

 Their connection with various plant-diseases, and the curious de-
