The fungus in question has been named Greeneria fulignea, is 
both saprophytic and parasitic, and has been very destructive to the 
berries at Tokay, near Fayetteville, N. C. It was not observed upon the 
leaves. Pustules are formed just beneath the epidermis; have no ostiola; 
size when mature, 17 /'- to 25 u -; the basidia fill the interior, then rupture 
the pustules expand over the surface and bear the conidia. The latter are 
0 v- .954 to 1 .213, of a ferruginous color.
