No. 504. PUCCINIA DICHONDRAE Mont, occurs in 
southern California, where it was collected at San Diego, March 
9, 1882, by M. E. Jones, No. 3040, and in Orange Co., May, 1903, 
by S. S. Parish, No. 4808. It has also been reported from Missis¬ 
sippi, by Tracy and Earle (Bull. Miss. Exper. Sta. No. 34:85. 
1895)- 
No. 525. PUCCINIA PHILIBERTIAE E. & E. is a syn¬ 
onym of P. Gonolobi Rav., as a recent examination by the writer 
of the type specimen in the herbarium of the N. Y. Botanical 
Garden has clearly proved. 
No. 529. PUCCINIA COMPACTA Kze. also occurs in 
Porto Rico, W. I. A collection made by A. A. Heller at Aibonito, 
P. R., March 22, 1899, on Asclepias curassavica L., No. 863, was 
determined by Ellis as P. concrescens E. & E., a name I have been 
unable to trace. Part of this collection sent to Dr. Bubak was 
compared with type material and pronounced identical with P. 
compacta. 
No. 539. PUCCINIA HALENIAE A. & H. has been 
found in Wyoming on Gentiana calycosa Griseb. 
No. 588. PUCCINIA CYMOPTERI D. & H. is undoubt¬ 
edly a synonym of P. Jonesii Pk. 
No. 595. PUCCINIA ASPERIOR E. & E. is also a syn¬ 
onym of P. Jonesii Pk. The two hosts cited, Ferula dissoluta and 
Leptotaenia dissecta , both refer to the same species, the former 
name being a synonym of the latter. Another host, Ferula mul- 
tidda, cited under P. Jonesii , should be written Leptotaenia mul- 
tidda. 
No. 634. PUCCINIA MICROICA Ellis, was founded 
upon an erroneously determined host. The type is unquestiona¬ 
bly Cryptotaenia Canadensis, and the name becomes a synonym 
of P. Cryptotaeniae Pk. 
No. 639. PUCCINIA LINDROTHII Syd. is an undoubted 
synonym of P. Jonesii Pk. 
No. 640. PUCCINIA SPHALEROCONDRA Lindr. is 
another synonym of the very abundant and very variable species 
P. Jonesii Pk. This species also occurs on more than a half dozen 
species of hosts not reported by Sydow. Aecidium Leptotaeniae 
Lindr. is a synonym not mentioned by Sydow. 
No. 652. PUCCINIA SCANDICA Johans, has been col¬ 
lected in Utah at 8900 ft. alt., Aug. 16, 1903, by A. O. Garrett, 
No. 292, on Epilobium sp. 
No. 992. PUCCINIA THOMPSONII Hume, is a synonym 
of P. Bolleyana Sacc., or what is the more correct name P. Sam- 
buci (Schw.) Arth. This connection has been proven by cultures 
carried out by Prof. Kellerman.
