. The British rust fungi (Uredinales), their biology and classification. Uredineae. 382 HEMILEIA On leaves of Gattleya Dowiana Batem., imported from Costa Rica, 1899. (Fig. 285.)

The ui-edospores germinated readily, and young Gattleya leaves, inoculated on the under surface, produced mature uredospores in thirteen days. No success attended the efforts to infect other orchids, not belonging to the genus Gattleya. This description is founded on that given in the Kew Bulletin; on referring to the Gardener's Chronicle {) it will be seen that the particulars there given differ in several respects. The s[)ecimen is in the Kew Herbarium. This fungus and the others of the same genus might easily become dangerous parasites in orchid houses, if allowed to spread; though it seems probable, on the slender evidence at present known, that each is confined, like most other Rusts, to a single genus, if not species.
