Kern gives thirty-twospecies as the number for North America and in vol. 7, North AmericanFlora, part 3, pages 188-190, gives a useful key for the identificationof the species.

(After Jones andBartholomew, Bull. 257, Agric. Exper. Stat., Univ. Wise, July, 1915.) celled teliospores are formed. The aecia occur on two species of shadbush: Amelanchier canadensis and .4. intermedia (Fig. 73). In Gymnos porangium nidus-avis, the telia arise from a perennialmycelium which often dwarfs the young shoots and causes birds-nestdistortions in which usually there is a reversion of the leaves to thejuvenile form, sometimes causing gradual enlargements in isolatedareas on the larger branches of Juniperus virginiana with aecia onseveral species of Amelanchier (Fig. 73). Juniperus communis is the host of the telial stage of G. clavaricEforme,which appears on long fusiform swellings of various-sized branches,14 2IO MYCOLOGY scattered, or aggregated and its aecia on seven species of Amelanchier,one each of A ronia and Cydonia.
