Some other examples will be mentioned in our next section. Haustoria of the epiphytic Parasites. The most inconspicuous haustoria are those of Herpotrichia nigra and TricJio-ydirteria vnrasitica, described by E. Hartig.^. Flo. 2.—Haustoria of Trickosnhaeria parasitica. (Details on Fifr. 88.) (After R. Hartig.) They are tiny hyphal processes resting on the host-epidermis, and sunk into the outer walls of the epidermal cells, so as to pierce the cuticle but not the whole wall (Fig. 2, d, e; also Fig. 90). The Erysipheae are typical epiphytes, which weave a mycelium over the surface of plants they attack; the mycelium retains its hold by adhesion-discs or appressoria, and from certain parts of these a fine thread-like process is given off, which, after piercing the epidermal wall of the host, swells inside to a simple or branched sac, the haustorium.
