Doassansia epilobii , Farlow, in Ellis, N. A. Fungi, No. i486. 1885 ! 
Doassansia punctiformis, Winter. 
This Australian form is known to me only from the 
description. It is said to have a cortex composed of one 
layer of polygonal cells, with thick, minutely granulated 
walls, which, providing the species be a true Doassansia , 
would be enough to distinguish it. 
It inhabits living leaves of Lythrum hyssopifolium. 
Distribution. Melbourne, Australia.

Doassansia comari, (Berk, and Br.) } De Toni et Massee. 
This species is known to me only from the descriptions. 
From them it seems to be a Doassansia with enormous sori 
(1 mm. to 1*5 mm. in diameter), and a distinct cortex. 
Distribution. Great Britain.
