The author has examined a large number of Montague’s species, and in this article gives 
notes and complete descriptions of many species. Gives the following notes on synonomy: 
JEcidium scillinum 1). R. A Mont, does not seem to differ from the JEcidium of Uromyces 
erythronii and is equally like JE. asp ho deli Cast. Uromyces sisyrinchii Mont, is the uredo- 
spore state of Puccini a sisyrinchii Mont. Uromyces placentula Mont, was communicated by 
Berkeley under the name Uredo placentula, but is only the uredo of Vuccinia pruni Pers. 
Uredo pruni Mont, can not be separated from Vaccinia pruni Pers. Uredo microcelis Mont, 
is a poorly developed specimen of Uromyces limonii (DC.) Lev., and Uredo statices B. A C. 
(North Pacific expl. expd., No. 135) belongs to the same species. Uredo planiscula Mont, is 
the u redos pore state of Uromyces rumicis (Schutn.) Wint. Uredo bellidis I). R. A Mont, and 
a fungus in Montague’s herbarium under the name of JEcidium purpurascens D. R. and Mont, 
are both forms of Vaccinia hieracii (Sebum.) Mart. Besides these species from Montagne’s 
herbarium the article also contains notes on some other Uredinea*. studied by the author. 
Uredo japonica B. & C. (Pacific expd., No. 134) — Uromyces japonicus Berk. Vaccinia cardui

A list of 35 species of Uromyces on Leguminoste, with notes and in some cases full de¬ 
scriptions. The number of species as usually counted is reduced in some cases by uniting 
several species. The following changes are made: Uromyces falee (Pers.) DBy. = Uromyces 
vicia? Uckl., U. lathyri Thiim. on Lathyrus piriformis, sylvestris, and Vicia. Uredo longipes 
Lascli. or leguminosarum , and Uromyces ervi West. Uromyces trifolii (Hedw.) Lev.— Uredo 
fallens Desm., Uromyces cytisi Tliiim. on Garaganum purpureum, Uredo car ay once Thiim. on 
Caraganum arborescentem, Uromyces onobrychidis Lev., Uredo onobrychii Desm., and JEcidium 
elegans B. A C. on Trifolium carolinianum. Uromyces appendiculatus (Pers.) Lk.= Uredo 
leguminurn Desm., Uromyces dolichi Ck o., JEcidium candidum Bonorden, Cceoma apiculosum 
Bonord. Uromyces pisi (Pers.) DBy. = Uredo lathy ri Belly nek, Uredo vicia;craccce Bellynck.

Uromyces astragali var. lupini B. A C. Uredo lupini B. A. C. This species is distinct from 
Uromyces lupini Sacc. and from U. astragali. Uromyces astragali (Opiz.) Sacc. includes as 
synonyms 77 . oxytropidis Rug. in Rab. F. Eur. No. 171)3; U. cytisi Schr. in ibid No. 2671; 
Uredo oxytropidis Pk. Winter has united some species to Uromyces genistce-tinctorice, which 
should be separated from it—77. anthyllidis, 77. anagyridis, 77. ononidis, 77. trigonclice, Uro¬ 
myces, and Uredo lupini (not B. A C.)—which ought to be referred to the following species: 
Uronvyces astragali , 77. punctatus, 77. oxytropidis, which belong to 77. astragali. Uromyces 
pteleacearum Rab. F. Eur. No. 93 has the host wrongly named, and is 77. genista? on La¬ 
burnum. The following must be omitted from the synonyms of 77. genista?tine to rice: 77. cytisi 
Schroet. F. E. No. 2731; 77. cytisi Thiim. M. V. No. 1728; Uredo caragance on Carag. arbo- 
rescens, Uromyces onobrychidis Lev. Uromyces anthyllidis= 77. anagyridis (Roussel) Roum.; 
77. lupini Sacc. (not B. A C.); 77. ononidis Passer, in Rab. F. Eur. No. 1792 : 77. trigonellai 
Passer in Thiim. H. CEcon. No. 118; 77. trigonellce Pat. Uromyces minor Schroet. should 
include 77. trifolii (Wettsteiu) on Trif. montanum in FI. Excicc. Austro-Hung. No. 1563. 
Uredo hedysari Thiim. M. V. No. 1932 on Hedysarum setigerum, from Siberia, does not be¬ 
long to Uromyces hedysari (DC.) Fckl., but to Uromyces astragali. Urom. haszlinskii do Toni 
should be added to the synonyms of the latter. Uromyces lapponicus Lagerh . — JEcidium 
astragali Thiim. M. V. No. 1117; JE. astragali Eriksson, F. par. Scand. No. 285: JE. astra- 
gali-alpini Eriks., ibid.; JE. carneum, de Lagerh.; JE. oxyt> opidis Thiim. The following 
species are excluded: U.mucuna? liab.. 77. sphasropleus Cke., 77. pseudarthrice G’ke., 77. versa- 
tilis Pk., 77. tepperianus Sacc. (E. A.S.)

Notes spread of species from Chili, where first, discovered, in 1852. to various parts of 
Europe. Quotes Eriksson as reporting it in Aragonia in I860, as appearing in Bordeaux in 
1871, in England in 1873, as spreading through Germany to Austria. Italy, Holland, and 
Denmark, only appearing in Sweden in 1882, and not reaching the northern part before 1887. 
Finally (1890) reports it from Finland. (Tlieo. Holm.)

The author has found Vuccinia coronata on specimens of Arena, the seeds of which had 
been introduced from Europe. Calls attention to the fact that none of the species of Ilham- 
nus, said to he the bearers of the TEcidium form, have yet been observed in Ecuador. The 
only possible explanation of the occurrence of this Vuccinia in Ecuador will therefore he (o 
suppose that the JEeidiuni-form has been omitted entirely. Similar observations have been 
made by Plowright (The connection of wheat mildew (Vuccinia graminis Pers ) with the 
Barberry-iEcidiunt (A. berberidis Gruel.}, Records of the Wool hope Transactions, Hen ford, 
1887), who succeeded in infecting young plants of wheat directly with sporidia of Vuccin ; a 
graminis. This last fungus has also been found in Ecuador, although the species of Bcrberis 
and Mahonia . upon which the iEcidium form is said to occur, are wanting. The author has 
found, however, an TEcidium upon Bcrberis glauca. but this seems to belong to a Diorchidium, 
hitherto unknown, and occurring on t he same Berberis. The author describes a new species, 
Fusarium uredinis, parasitic on the Uredo form of Vuccinia graminis. (Tlieo. Holm.)
