from other wild species found in grape juice, like 5. apiculatus and 
5. membranij aciens which exert a deleterious effect in wine produc- 
tion. Its cells are ellipsoidal, 6// long, occurring singly or in rows 
of several generations which are rather loosely joined. 
Order 2. — Pezizales or cup fungi. Examples: Peziza, Lachnea 
and Ascobolus. 
Parasitic or saprophytic plants, whose vegetative bodies consist of a 
mycelium ramifying through the substratum and whose above ground

jams, jellies, etc. Budding process is shown in many of the cells as also the vac- 
uoles. ( Schneider , Pharmaceutical Bacteriology.) 
fruiting bodies are sessile or stalked, cup or saucer-shaped structures 
termed apothecia (sing, apothecium) in which a fruiting membrane 
(hymenium) lines the concave upper surface. The asci are usually 
eight-spored and separated from each other by filamentous struc- 
tures called paraphyses. 
Order 3.- Plectascales, the blue and green molds. Examples: 
Aspergillus and Penicillium. 
Penicillium glaucum (green mold or mildew), a type of mildew, 
belonging to the Ascomycetes class of Fungi, forms sage-green crusts
