2324. Sphsexia parallela. Frie^. — On pine wood. 
Sporidia uniseriate, elongated, elliptic, brown. 
2325. Valsa albofusca. C. & Ellis. 
Parva, epidermide tecta; erumpens; peritlieciis paucis, ostiolis 
in disco fnsco, primum albopulverulento, collectis ; ascis arcte cla- 
vatis ; sporidiis cylindraceis, utrinque attenuatis, multinucleatis. 
On Quercus ohtusiloha. 
At first, when bursting through the cuticle, masked by a white, 
mealy pseudo-disc, which soon falls away, and exposes the shining 
black ostiola, few in number, protruding through a brown disc ; 
sporidia long and narrow, *04 x ‘005 m.m., with a row of nuclei 
(pi. n, fig. 8). 
2326. Valsa cinctula. C. & Pk. in IST. Y. Reports. — On chestnut. 
Sporidia "05 m.m. long, curved, hyaline, triseptate when mature. 
Allied to F. suffusa., but the ostiola are distinct, and not united 
into a common orifice as in that species (pi. 75, fig 15). 
2327. Valsa, sp. — On bark of Viburnum. 
The very minute fragment of this specimen is insufficient for 
determination. The sporidia are sausage-shaped, hardly mature, 
in some cases not formed in the ascus. It may be Valsa mesoleuca^ 
B. & C. 
2328. Sphaeropsis sumachi. C. ^ E. — (^Sphceria sumachi, Schwz. 
No. 1425.) 
On branches of Bhus glabra. 
Spores elliptic, brown, sometimes with a large globose nucleus, 
•02--025 X 012 m.m. (pi. 75, fig. 11). 
2323. Diatrype hystrix. Tode.—On Acer rubrum. 
2330. Nectria cucurbitula. — On Nyssa and Rhus. 
The asci and sporidia are of two kinds. Small and narrow asci, 
containing eight narrow, fusiform sporidia. Larger asci contain- 
ing innumerable minute spermatoid sporidia, not more than *003 
m.m. long. 
2331. Calocera cornea. />•.— On maple. 
2332. Helicosporium olivaceum. Pech.—Orv rotten wood. 
We have not been able to compare this with an original speci- 
men of Helicosporium vegetum., Nees, but it accords very well with 
Corda’s figure of that species. 
2333. Diatrype fibritecta. C. & Ellis. ^ ^ ^ 
Pustulis longitudinaliter erumpentibus, subseriatis, ostiolis pro- 
minulis exasperata, stromate atrobrunneo ; ascis minimis, clavatis ; 
sporidiis allantoideis, hyalinis. 
On bark of Juniperus Virginiana. 
The pustules are small and erumpent, girt, or partly covered 
with the fibres of the fissured bark ; the necks are often elongated.
