Remarks. This is the only species of Puccinia on Zoysia hitherto 
known. DlETEL (6) states that his description of the uredospore is not com- 
plete being unable to get a good specimen. I shall note my own observation 
on the uredostage of this fungus in the following paragraph. 
Uredosori, mostly epiphyllous ; minute, oblong or linear, gregarious, 
often confluent, naked, with ruptured epidermis, pulverulent, light orange- 
colored. Uredospores, oblong, obovate or broadly ellipsoidal, verrucoso- 
echinulate, light yellow or hyaline, 18-22x15-17/^; germ-pores 2, inconspi- 
cuous ; epispore thick, especially at the apex ; paraphyses absent in the sori. 
Previous to DlETEL’S description, a specimen of the same species, col- 
lected by Mr. T. Yoshinaga in 1901, was sent to P. Hennings. The 
author named it Uredo Zoysice P. Henn., although its description seems never 
to have been published. Examining the original specimen of Uredo Zoysice 
P. Henn., I see no points of difference from our present species.

REMARKS. The macroscopical appearance of this species agrees with 
that of other Puccinia on Bambuseae. But its paraphyses are very charac- 
teristic being often septate and thick walled. The teleutospores which are 
not so much thickened at apex, can be distinguished from those of Puccinia 
Kusanoi and P. xanthosperma. The length of pedicel of this fungus is
