16. Puccinia ligusticicola S. Miyake n. sp. 
Teleutosori, hypophyllous, or on the petioles ; scattered, rounded, 
small (1-2 mm. in diam.), little elevated, black. Uredospores are inter- 
mixed among the teleutospores. Uredospores, globose or elliptical, echinu- 
late, apex thickened (usually 7//), light brownish yellow, 25-36x22-28 // ; 
germ-pores 3, with swollen hyaline papilla. Teleutospores, elliptical or 
oblong-elliptical, apex roundish, slightly constricted, base roundish or 
slightly attenuated, smooth, chestnut-brown, 32-54 x 23-34// > germ-pore 
of the upper cell at the apex, that of the lower just below the septum, 
provided with a subhyaline membrane ; pedicels, hyaline or subhyaline, 
short, deciduous.

REMARKS. The present species resembles very closely P. Nanbuana. 
With the teleutospores only, it is almost impossible to find the difference 
between them ; though we may find among many spores of this species 
some little longer and somewhat more constricted. But macroscopically 
we can easily distinguish them by the size of teleutosori, those of P. Nan- 
buana being twice to several times smaller in diameter. With P. aphani- 
condra Lindr. on Ligusticum alatum our species is also nearly related. 
They can readily be distinguished from each other by the position of the 
germ-pore on the lower cell of teleutospore ; the pore in the species under
