The Fungoid Pests of the Vinery and Stove, M. C 
Cooke, in Jour. Roy. Hort. Soc. 28:313-337, May 1904, popular, 
is accompanied by three colored plates illustrating thirty-three 
species. 
In Pests of Orchard and Fruit Garden, Jour. Roy.. 
Hort. Soc. 28:1-43, Oct. 1903, by M. C. Cooke, the three col¬ 
ored plates show spores, etc., of forty-three species. 
Joseph Charles Arthur publishes in the Bulletin of 
the Torrey Botanical Club for Jan. 1906 (33:27-341) New 
Species of Uredineae, IV, from various localities as Porto Rico,. 
Cuba, Mexico, and the United States. One species is a Uromyces,. 
one Hyalospora, one Ceratelium, one Coleosporium, one Uredo 
and four Aecidiums. The genus Ceratelium is new, and one spe¬ 
cies is described ’on Canavalia from Porto Rico. “An especially 
interesting rust on account of the combination of a melampsora- 
ceous fungus with a leguminous host.Except in the 
length of the telial column, there is considerable resemblance to 
Cronartium.” In the descriptions Dr. Arthur has made use of 
the terms (lately proposed by him) pycnium , aecium, uredineum 
and telium , instead of spermogonium, aecidium, uredo and teleuto- 
spores. 
P. Hennings enumerates a long list of fungi, including 
many new species, from eastern Africa, under the title Fungi 
Africae orientalis, the first part of which appeared May 22, 1900,, 
and the second part 18 Nov. 1902, in Engler’s Botanischer Jahr- 
bucher, vols. 28 and 33. The new genera Engleromyces and 
Busseella are there described. 
The original articles in 4E Fascicule (Tome XXI) of 
the Bulletin Mycologique de France, issued 31 Dec. 1905, 
are: R. Maire, Flore mycologique des iles Baleares (avec fig.) y 
G. Bainier, Acrostalagmus roseus Bain, et Nemotogonum album 
Bain. (PI. XII et XIII) ; F. Gueguen, Gliomastix (Torula) 
chartarum n. gen. et n. sp. (PI. XIV et XV) ; F. Gueguen, 
Quelques mots sur les Aspergillus pathogenes. 
An exhaustive study of the Life History of Hypocrea 
alutacea is published by Geo. F. Atkinson in the Dec (1905) 
No. of the Botanical Gazette (40:401-416), illustrated by three 
full page half tones. He unites Bresadola’s H. lloydii with this 
species and the new name necessary in the light of present knowl¬ 
edge is formed as follows: Podostroma alutaceum (Pers.) At¬ 
kinson. Professor Atkinson satisfied himself that the American 
plants are identical with European ones not only by an examina¬ 
tion of exsiccata Rab, F. Eur. 132 and 246, but also by an 
inspection in Paris in 1905 of the specimens of Hypocrea alutacea 
in the herbarium of the Museum of Paris among which were 
some specimens from Tulasne’s herbarium.
