On Lactuca (Prenanthes) muralis only. Not common. April—September, All three spore-forms may be found on the same leaf. (Fig. 104.) The ascidiura of this species is not provided with a proper peridium and opens with a jjore, never the form of a cup ; moreover the secidiospores are more round than angular. The germ-pores of the uredo- spores are covered with a broad convex colourless cap, which swells up somewhat in water. The genetic connection of the three spore-forms has been proved experimentally by Jacky (Centralbl. f Bakt. ix. 1902, p. 842), as also the fact that the parasite is not transmissible to other species of Lactuca. There is another Eecidium also found on Lactuca muralis on the continent which possesses a well-developed peridium ; this belongs to Puccinia Opizii Bubak, and has its teleutospoVes on Carex inuricata.
