JOURNAL OF MYCOLOGY. 
[VOL. IV, No. 12, 
Conidia obovate, acute below. 3-septate, quite dark, almost opake, 
12—15 x 6—8, with a crest of three horizontally spreading 
bristles 15—20 micr. long arising without any very distinct 
hyaline apical cell directly from the obtuse apex, basal hyaline 
cell small, acute terminating in a hyaline pedicel shorter than 
the conidia. 
Sporidesmium funereum, Ell. k Lang. — On rotten pieces of an 
old coffin taken from a brick tomb. Pointe a la Hache, Feb. ’86. 
Langlois No, 1456. Effused, pulverulent, snuff-brown. Conidia 
globose, 10—15 micr. muricate-roughened, mostly 4-parted by 
two vertical septa at right angles and furnished with a short 
(often obconic) hyaline pedicel below, Allied to S. Mori forme, 
Pk. & S. Rauii , E.& H. 
Haplographium griseum, Ell. k Lang.—On decaying corn 
stalks. Pointe a la Hache, La. July ; 86. Langlois 1464. Ef¬ 
fused, dirty gray. Fertile hyphae sub-fasciculate or solitary, pale 
brown, faintly septate, 150—200 x 4, simple or sometimes forked 
about midway, subdichotomously branched above, the branches 
erect and forming a compact, brush-like head about 30 micr. long 
and half that wide. Conidia terminal, oblong, hyaline, 4—5 x 1J. 
The branches are not verticillate. 
Botrytis funicola, E. k E.—On an old rope lying on the 
ground, Newfield, N, J., Oct. Hyphae subolivaceous, simple or 
sparingly branched below, continuous, 20 -30 x 2—2J, forming a 
thin dark olive colored stratum. Conidia terminal (solitary)? 
olivaceous, ovate-elliptical, uninucleate, 3—4 x 2—2J. Comes 
near B. otroviridis , C. & E. 
Fusicladium caryigenum, Ell k Lang.—On living leaves of 
Carya olivmformis St. Martinsville, Sept. '88. Langlois No. 
1499. Hypophyllous and maculicolons. Spots, numerous, small, 
(1—2 mm.) but also larger (3—5 mm.) and then of irregular 
shape, subangular, center grayish-white, margin purple-shaded. 
Hyphae simple or somewhat branched below, olive-black, septate, 
60—75 x 4—5, subequal. Conidia terminal, almond-shaped vary¬ 
ing to ovate and clavate-ovate, smoky-olivaceous. 10 —15 x 6—7. 
This can hardly be separated from E. effusum Whiter by its 
microscopical characters but its epiphyllous, maculicolous growth 
and darker colored (almost black) hyphae will distinguish it. 
E, effusum is also found on Carya olivmformis (Langlois. 1369).
