germination. On leaves of Lactuca leucophaea 
Gray. Racine. Sept. 1907. 
710. Phyllosticta renouana Sacc. & Roum. 
On Typha latifolia L. Snllivan. 
I liave not seen an authentic specimen of this species. 
The exuded sporules often resemble small drop¬ 
lets of water adhering to the leaf. 
711. Phyllosticta syrihgae West. 
I have referred to this species a fungus observed on 
the leaves of two shrubs of Syringa vulgaris L. 
in a door yard in Racine. The attack is made 
at the apex of the leaf and spreads more rapidly 
along the margins than the midrib. The pycnidia 
are about 100 microns in diameter and the 
sporules fusoid-oblong, biguttulate, 6—8 X 2%— 
3 microns. 
712. Phyllosticta trillii E. & E. 
On leaves and calyces of Trillium cernuum L. Radis- 
son. As this differs somewhat from the type 
from the state of Washington, as described, I ap¬ 
pend my notes: Spots subcircular, brown be¬ 
coming paler in the center, .5—1 cm in diameter; 
pycnidia epiphyllous, prominent, hemispherical, 
black, 75—120 microns; sporules hyaline, fusoid, 
straight or curved, often plurinucleate, cytoplasm 
sometimes once divided, ( 1 ! 2—20 X 3 microns 
July. 
713. Phyllosticta violae Desm. 
On looking over some old specimens of Cercospora 
granuliformis Ell. & Hal. on Viola palmata L. 
var. cucullata Gray, collected at Racine a few of 
the leaves were found to bear the Phyllosticta also. 
714. Ramularia acteae E. & H. 
On Actaea rubra Willd. La Pointe. 
715. Ramularia paulula n. sp. 
Spots definite, suborbicular, brown with a darker 
margin 1—4 mm in diameter, often accompanied 
by indeterminate yellow areas of the leaf; hyphae
