On Anemone quinquefolia L. 
Carey, Wyandot Co., Ohio. May 4, 1902.

“Aecidium fuscum. 
“Ae. semnibus fuscis. Persoon .. Caroli a Linne, Systema Vegeta- 
bilium, 1473. Cura Jo. Frid. Gmelin.” 1791. 
R. Relhan as author has been credited by Winter, and his descrip¬ 
tion is also given below, but Persoon not Relhan (sec. Holway, Jour. My- 
col. 8:172. Dec. 1902), should be cited as original author. 
“Plantula haec de qua varise opiniones nuper habitse sunt, dum 
quibusdam ex insectorum ictu, aliis vero e morbo oriri credebatur, in 
foliis Anemones nemorosae parasitat; praesertim paginem inferiorem, 
nonnunquam, sed rarius superiorum, vel ipsa petala utrinque occupans; 
initio pallide lutea, orbiculata, sparsa, numerosa in uno folio 600. Semina, 
epidermide sub qua latent demum fracta, nuda apparent, filis destituta, 
non cohaerentia, saturate fusca; quibus tandem excussis, theca, mem- 
branacea, suborbiculata, marginibus laceris, vacua persistit. Plantae con- 
tiguae saepe in vetustiore statu confluunt. Folia in quibus Aecidium 
parasitat, crassiora, rigidiora, filicum quodammodo aemula evadunt; pauca 
tamen specimina inveni ne minima quidem injuria visibili affecta.” R. 
Relhan, Florae Cantabrigiensi Supplementum Tertium, 36. 1793.
