Probably tbe stylospores of one of the species of Spliceria on the 
same canes. See Sphceria Hendersonia. No. 2508a. 
Sphseropsis fLbxiseda. C. 4* E. 
On decorticated Nyssa. No. 2619. 
Sphaeropsis ilicicola. C. & E. 
Peritheciis gregariis, atris, erumpentibus, epidermide cinctis ; 
sporis ovoideis, hyalinis. (Pl. 96, fig. 28.) 
On holly leaves. 
Collected together on either side the leaves. Perithecia promi- 
nent, black, shining, splitting the cuticle; spores ovoid, hyaline, 
•01--012 X •006--007 m.m. No. 2560. 
Spheeropsis phacidioides. C. <f E. 
Peritheciis erumpentibus, subglobosis, atris, epidermide cinctis ; 
sporis cylindraceis, obtusis, hyalinis. (PI. 96, fig. 29.) 
On holly leaves. 
Perithecia rather large, splitting the cuticle in a radiating 
manner, resembling Phacidium ilicis ; spores cylindrical, hyaline, 
•03-*035 X -004 mm. No. 2600. 
Diplodia ilicicola. Eesm. 
On holly twigs. No. 2593. 
Diplodia atramentaria. a^E. 
Peritheciis paucis, congestis, erumpentibus, atro-brunneis, ob- 
tusis, apice magno perforatis ; sporis arcte ellipticis, brunneis, 
profusis, profluentibus et inquinantibus. 
On branches of Morus. 
Spores '015 X *006 mm., profuse, issuing from the ostiola in 
black masses, and blackening the surface of the bark around them 
as in species of Melanconium. No. 2514. 
Diplodia Chionanthi. C. Sf E. 
Gregaria. Peritheciis tectis, papillatis, atris, ad basin mycelio 
profuso brunneo radiantibus ; sporis ellipticis, brunneis, unisep- 
tatis, vix constrictis. 
On branches of ChionantJms. 
Spores '025 x *01 mm. There are scarcely distinctive features 
for a great number of the species of Diplodia, and this amongst 
them, but as they are probably pycnidia of Sphceria, it appears 
somewhat justifiable to attach definite names pro. tern, until the 
Sphceria to which they appertain are determined. This remark is 
intended to apply to all the species of Dijjlodia and Sphoeropsis 
included in these communications. No. 2531. 
Hendersonia Robiniae. West. 
On Rocinia. No. 2612.
