One very small young 
pustule. 
One very small young 
pustule. 
Two young and one fairly 
old pustule. 
One fairly old pustule. 
Five young and one old 
pustule. 
A fair number of pustules 
scattered irregularly over 
the leaf, young and old 
mixed indiscriminately. 
Fair number, mostly young, 
but onefold one near edge 
of leaf. 
Fair number. Equal number 
of old and young pustules. 
Fewer than above. All old 
except two. 
About 150. None more 
than moderately old ; 
majority are young.

An elongated area about 
2 inches long and i inch 
broad, situated in the ex- 
treme proximal portion of 
the leaf, was densely 
crowded with pustules 
varying in age from 
moderately old to those 
which were only just break- 
ing the surface. The rest 
of the leaf bore about 20 
pustules only, scattered 
irregularly except for some 
5 or 6 grouped in a rough 
circle. These last were 
all old pustules. 
One young pustule only. 
Two pustules. One old and 
one young. 
About 9 pustules of varying 
age.

Remarks. 
These two leaves 
stood up in the 
centre of the 
globe. 
This leaf was grow- 
ing close to No. 8. 
The biggest pustule 
from the circular 
colony of old pus- 
tules was examined 
under microscope. 
Found that the 
great majority of 
teleutospores had 
already germinated 
and dropped their 
spores.
