Rust fungi. 368 THECOPSORA summit with a pore; spores elongated-ellipsoid or clavate, provided with distant and pointed warts, yellowish, 26—35 x 14—16/a; epispore rather thick, without perceptible germ- pores.

Teleutospores have been met with by few observers ; previous to their discovery, it was uncertain in what genus the fungus should be placed. It may possibly be hetercecious. The uredospores are often more coarsely warted at one end, though this is not invariably the case. Fischer figures the cells of the peridium round the pore as furnished above with pointed warts, of which one is distinctly longer than the others : those cells are enormously thickened on the lower wall. Distribution: Europe, North ilmerica. THECOPSORA Magnus. Hetercecious or secidia unknown. Teleutospores intracellular, occupying and filling the epi- dermal cells of the leaves, united into a brown crust, other characters as in Pucciniastr'um. Uredo as in Pucciniastrum. iEcidia hemispherical, with a thick brown peridium (so far as known); secidiospores verrucose, with a narrow, thin, smooth strip down one side (? always). 1.
