Palawan, Taytay, Merrill 8737, April, 1913. On leaves of Glochidion. 
The species comes very near to Asterina lobata Syd. which, however, 
differs by its smaller hyphopodia, the flexuose hyphae, and the more con- 
spicuous colonies.

nia; summit of Mt. Capoas, Merrill 9082, April, 1913. On leaves of Euge- 
nia; Taytay, Merrill S 179, May 3, 1913. On leaves of Eugenia.
