Davis—Notes on Parasitic Fungi in Wisconsin — VI. 713 
Specimens on Lactuca Scariola integrata collected at Madison 
September 30, 1916 bear orbicular, cinereous spots with a pro¬ 
nounced dark border; the pycnidia are innate and the sporules 
24—30 x 1-1 y 2 fi. This seems to be Septoria unicolor Wint. A 
collection on Lactuca Scariola made at the same station October 
6, 1916 has the spots somewhat angular, definite but not mar¬ 
gined, sometimes confluent and sporules about 30 x 1/a. 
Colletotrichum salmonicolor O’Gara ( Mycologia, 7: 40) Of a 
collection that seems referable to this species the following notes 
were made. 
Spots numerous, scattered, subcircular, black, about 1 mm. in 
diameter, sometimes confluent; acervuli hypophyllous and cauli- 
colous, flat, 60-120/a wide, usually solitary in the center of the 
spot, soon exposed, the spore masses bright salmon color; sporules 
hyaline, as seen singly, with thin walls and granular contents, 
cylindrical, usually straight, 18-27 x 3%-6 /a borne on similar but 
smaller (10-15 x 3/a) basidia. On leaves of Asclepias syriaca. 
Arcadia, Wisconsin, September, 1917. On the midribs and stems 
the spots are longer and acute at each end. Black setae occur in 
the acervuli occasionally. This differs from Hainesia only in the 
thick sporophore and occasional setae. It was abundant at 
the station where observed. It may be that this is not distinct 
from the fungus described by Saccardo as Gloeosporium mol- 
lerianum Thuem. var. folliculosum which occurred on follicles 
of Asclepias verticillata in a botanical garden in Portugal. (FI. 
Myc. Lusit. 11:13 [1903], Syll. Fung. 18: 458) of which I have 
not seen specimens. 
In July 1916 Gaylussacia baccata bushes were noticed at Hix- 
ton that had the appearance of having been attacked by Monilia 
and on examination a few broad-limoniform conidia were found 
which measured 24-27 x 18-20/a. The material hardly warrants 
a determination but has been filed under the label Monilia pecki- 
ana Sacc. & Yogi. 
Rhynchosporium secalis (Oud.) n. comb. (Marsonia secdlis 
Oud. Rhynchosporium graminicola .Heinsen). On Hordeum 
vulgare (cult.) Madison. 
Septocylindrium acutum n. sp. Spots definite, elliptical, 
brown becoming grey, often confluent, 1-8 mm. long; conidia 
amphigenous but more abundant above, hyaline, lance-fusoid,
