In other genera there appears a peculiar tendency, as in many Myri- angiales, to raise the perithecia on plectenchymatic protrusions above the stroma, which thus is differentiated into sterile basal and fertile columnar parts. A schematic cross section through a similar transitional form, Teichospora (Capnodium) meridionalis, also on Nerium and Citrus, is shown in Fig. 176, 2. Under suitable growth conditions, its subicular hyphae swell and in damp air become slimy, adhere in a slimy stroma which occasionally exhibits very bizarre forms. We may consider as an end form of this developmental series Teicho- spora {Capnodium, Apiosporium, and Fumago) salicina, a black.
