Luzon, Province of Bataan, Lamao (3533 Merrill) October, 1903. On dead 
bamboo. 
The sporidia in Merrill’s specimen measure 8.5-12 by 22-26 p, and the asci 
19-23 by 98-123 p, differing but slightly from the measurements given in Sacc. 
Syll., and approaching the specimens mentioned in Ellis, N. A. Pyr. 311, from 
Louisiana. 
The generic name used by most authors for this and related species is Apiospora 
Sacc. Soc. Veneto-Trent. Padova. 4 (1875) 9, which is untenable on account 
of Apiosporium Kunze, 1817. Saccardo uses the name Apiospora montagnei, 
and the original publication would indicate that it is a nom. nov. for Sphaeria 
apiospora D. & M. There is a Sphaeria montagnei Fr. Ann. Sci. Nat. T (1834) 
337. pk 11. f. 3, and I have a suspicion that the names have been confused. 
Judging from the descriptions and plates accompanying both original descrip- 
tions, and in Diir. & Mont. FI. Alg., the two species are not congeneric.
