ments under large groups is the same in style as the first paper 
published the preceding year. See Journal of Mycology, March 
1905. 
Kellerman, W. A. 
The Uredineous Infection Experiments in 1904 by \V. 
A. Kellerman, Journal of Mycology, Jan. 1905, deals with cult¬ 
ures made with Puccinia sorghi Schw., on the six ‘agricultural 
species’ of maize and on Puccinia helianthi Schw., on many 
species of Helianthus, Peridermium pini on Campanula ameri- 
cana, and Puccinia thompsonii on Sambucus candensis. 
Kellerman, W. A. 
Ohio Fungi, Fascicle X, W. A. Kellerman, Journal of 
Mycology, Jan. 1905, gives (as in case of the nine preceding fas¬ 
cicles) the labels used for exsiccata. These indicate the host, lo¬ 
cality, date, collector, and reproduce verbatim et literatim the 
original description in each case. This set carries the serial No. 
up to 200. 
Morgan, A. P. 
A. P. Morgan gives a brief note on the Genus Gibel- 
lula Cavara in the March No. of the Journal of Mycology 
(1905), conjecturing the final disposition of the same, then adds 
a new species, namely, Gibellula capillaris Morgan n. sp., grow¬ 
ing out of very small dead insects among the old leaves in woods. 
There are as many as a dozen growing out of one small insect, 
curved and coiled about it like a bundle of hairs. 
Schrenk, Herman von. 
Herman von Schrenk reports On the Occurrence of 
Peronospora parasitica on Cauliflower, in the 16th Annual 
Report of the Missouri Botanical Garden, 1906. The interest 
centers in the fact of the very local and sporadic appearance of 
the Mildew on this host. Three half-tone plates illustrate dis¬ 
eased leaves. 
Hedgcock, George Grant. 
Geo. Grant Hedgcock publishes in the i6th Annual 
Report of the Missouri Botanical Garden (1905) a brief but 
interesting account of A Disease of Cauliflower and Cabbage 
caused by Sclerotinia. “Cultures carefully taken from the in¬ 
terior of decaying cauliflower stems, quite uniformly produced 
colonies of a fungus with a white fluffy mycelium. These were 
transferred and the fungus studied in all its stages and identified 
as Sclerotinia libertiana Fckl.” Three plates illustrate the spe¬ 
cies — showing apothecia, sclerotia, and pure cultures on agar 
slant tubes.
