ON THIS UREDINKAE PARASITIC ON THE JAPANESE GRAMINEAE. 235 
physes being not septa ted. Moreover, the uredospore of the present species 
is the largest in the species of Puccinia growing on Bambuseae. 
Uredostage only, found in Japan. 
54. Puccinia Agrostidis Plowr., in Bot. Chron., 8 , 1890, ( 139 ); Sacc., 
Syll., 11, 1895, (202) ; Sydow, Monogr. Ured., 1 , 1904, ( 717 ) ; Fischer, Ured. 
Schw., 1904, (353) ; McAlpine, Rusts of Australia, 1906, (114). 
Hab. On Agrostis perennans Tuck. 
Hokkaido. — Prov. Ishikari : Ebetsu (II. Sept. 29, 1907. S. Ito). 
Distrib. Europe, Japan, Siberia, India and Australia. 
REMARKS. Our specimen has only the uredostage. A hyaline epi- 
spore as well as general shape and size of the spore point to its identity with 
Puccinia Agrostidis. But as there are no records about the number of 
germ-pores of Puccinia Agrostidis , the exact identification is somewhat dif- 
ficult. In ours there are 4-6 germ-pores. 
This fungus forms its Atcidium on the species of Aquilegia in Europe ; 
but in our country, .TEcidium on Aquilegia is not yet found. 
55. Puccinia Baryi (Berk, et Br.) Wint., Pilze, 1884, (178) ; Sacc., Syll., 
7, 1888, (660); Plowr., Brit. Ured. & Ustil., 1889, (191) ; Schroeter, Pilz 
Schles., 1889, (338) ; P. Henn., in Engl., Bot. Jahrb., 31, 1902, (732) ; 34,

Hab. On Brachy podium silvaticum Beauv. 
Hokkaido.— Prov. Ishikari: Shiroishi (II. Oct. 6, 1907. S. 1x5). — Prov. Iburi: Mororan (II. 
Aug. 3, 1900. G. Yamada).— Prov. Kitami: Rishiri-Island (II. Sept. I, 1899. T. Kawakami). 
Honshü.— Prov. Musashi : Takaoyama (II. July 25, 1901. N. Nambu). 
Distrib. Europe, Japan and India. 
REMARKS. The teleutostage of this fungus has not yet been found in 
our country. Consequently, it is somewhat difficult to settle exactly its 
systematic position. However, the presence of paraphyses and the character 
of the uredospores coincide very closely with the description of Puccinia 
Baryi.
