Nev. The pale yellow sori are roundish or somewhat elongated, mostly 
in groups; spores broadly elliptical or oblong, echinulated, 15—18 5c 
18—25 IK 
Chiiysomyxa albida, Kuhn.—Rab. Fungi Europsea, No. 3015 [Cole- 
esporium rubi, Ellis & Ilolway, N. A. F., No. 1878.) This species has 
been taken by the writers in Missouri and Wisconsin. It occurs abun¬ 
dantly on the lower surface of the leaves of Bubus occidentalism forming 
conspicuous pale yellow sori late in autumn. Ellis & Ilolway’s speci¬ 
mens were collected in Delaware in 1886 and distributed in N. A. F. the 
following year under the name Coleosporium ruin. Chrysomixa alba , 
Kuhn., which occurs in Europe on Bubus fructicosus , does not seem to 
differ from Coleosporium rubi , E. & H., and as the former name has 
priority it is the one that should be used. It may be well to add, how¬ 
ever, that if this is Chrysomyxa , it is difficult to distinguish it from Cole¬ 
osporium. 
NEW SPECIES OF FUNGI FROM VARIOUS 
LOCALITIES. 
BY J. B. ELBIS AND B. M. EVERHART. 
(Continued from page 59.) 
Diatrypella TocctyEana, DeNot, var. subeffusa, E. & E.—On 
bark of dead alder, Massachusetts. Rev. Jos. Blake. Stroma pulvinate, 
flattish-convex, I—1 cm. across or by confluence even more than that, 
dirty white within, covered permanently by the epidermis which is 
pierced by numerous small fascicles of the stellate-cleft, slightly promi¬ 
nent ostiola; perithecia numerous, 50—100 or more in a stroma, globose, 
rather large, reaching even one mm. in diameter, with thick membran¬ 
aceous walls and short necks; asci clavate-cylindrical, 150x10—12/* (p. sp. 
80—90 /'•), polysporous; sporidia yellowish in the mass, allantoid, hyaline, 
slightly curved, 2-nucleate, 5—7 x 1—If /'■. Bears outwardly considera¬ 
ble resemblance to Saccardo’s Eutypa ludibunda. This differs from the 
type in its subeffused, subconfluent stromata. 
Paiiodiella rigida, E. & E.—On dead leaves of Pinus rigida , still 
attached to limbs cut off about eighteen months ago, Newfield, N. J., 
April 26, 1888. Perithecia • gregarious, superficial, depressed-spherical, 
rougliish, without any prominent ostiolum, 100—120 y in diameter, with 
a sparing, brown, creeping mycelium around the base; asci oblong, ses¬ 
sile, 60—70 x 12—15 !>■, very evanescent; paraphyses (V): sporidia subbi- 
seriate, ovate-oblong, brown, 1-septate and deeply constricted (the two 
cells sometimes separating), 15—20 x 7—9 y\ spermogonia similar, with 
hyaline oblong sporules 15—18 x 7—8 /*, with a large central nucleus.
