NEW SPECIES OF FUNGI. 
BY J. B. ETA.IS AND B. M. EVERHART. 
Asterina inquinans, E. & E.—On dead leaves of Sabal Palmetto, 
Louisiana, July, 1886. Rev. A. B. Langlois. Perithecia scutelliform, 
black, umbonate, of radiate-cellular structure, the marginal cells sub¬ 
elongated and slightly enlarged at their extremities; asci ovate or 
obovate, contracted at the base into a short stipe, 35—40 x 18—22 p ; 
sporidia irregularly crowded, ovate-elliptical or oblong-elliptical, yellow¬ 
ish and faintly uniseptate(V). The perithecia are thickly scattered over 
both surfaces of the leaf and look much like masses of exuded spores of 
some Pestalozzia or Melanconium. 
Phyllachora oxalina, E. & E.—On living leaves of Oxalis cornic- 
ulata, Faulkland, Del., August, 1885. A. Commons, No. 117. Gregari¬ 
ous, tuberculiform, minute 0 millim.); stylospores oblong-fusoid, hya¬ 
line, 2-nucleate, then 1-septate, 7—8 x 2—3 p. The part of the leaf 
occupied by the fungus turns brown and dries up.
