uredospores, that is, by their color and size, as well as by the number of 
their germ-pores. In our specimens, P. Pimpinellce may be readily dis- 
tinguished from the other two species by the color of its uredospores ; but 
P. Chcerophylli and P. Osmorrliizce, as has already been remarked, can 
hardly be distinguished from each other, as their uredospores have similar 
color and siee, as well as an equal number of germ-pores.

Spermogonia, amphigenous, scattered among the secidia, rounded, 
yellowish. 
/Ecidia, hypophyllous, or on the petioles ; clustered, cup-shaped, with 
whitish torn edges, on small irregular spots. Hicidiospores, polygonal, glo- 
bose, finely verrucose, subhyaline, yellowish, 14-20/A in diameter, thin walled. 
Uredosori, amphigenous, or on the petioles ; small, scattered, on pale 
spots, long covered by epidermis, yellowish brown. Uredospores, globose, 
subglobose or oval, finely echinulate, light yellowish, 16-27 x 14-23/a > 
germ-pores 3 or rarely 2, with swollen hyaline papilla, equatorial ; epispore 
usually 3-4/x thick. 
Teleutosori, amphigenous, or on the petioles and stems, covered by 
epidermis, or surrounded by the ruptured remains ; small, scattered, blackish 
brown ; those on the petioles and stems elongated (2 or 3 mm.). Teleuto- 
spores, ovate or elliptical, apex rounded, not thickened, slightly constricted, 
base rounded, or slightly attenuated, inconspicuously reticulated, chestnut- 
brown, epispore very thin, 18-23 x 22-38 /a ; germ-pore of the upper cell 
at the apex, that of the lower 2/3 from the septum ; pedicels, hyaline, very 
slender, deciduous, short, or as long as the spore or rarely very long 
(about 80 fj).
