MARINE FUNGI IMPERFECTI. 
By Geo. K. Sutherland. 
[With Five Figures in the Text]. 
J UST as in the case of the Ascomycetes the Marine Fungi 
Imperfecti have attracted much less attention than Phycomy- 
cetes, and so far no systematised attempt has been made to 
investigate either the extent of their occurrence or their life 
histories. Doubtless this neglect may be ascribed partly to the 
fact that the existence of marine forms has not been generally 
recognised, and partly to the disregard in which the Fungi 
Imperfecti as a whole are held, notwithstanding the economic 
importance of many. Consequently, of the very small number 
recorded, little beyond mere diagnostic characters is known. 
The varied history of the first described species is worthy of 
note, inasmuch as it reflects, to a certain extent, the limited outlook 
as to the possibility of the existence of marine forms. This is the
