Spermogones hemispherical, ^cidia with a broad, inflated, irregularly torn peridium; aecidiospores with a coarsely verru- cose membrane, smooth on one side, without germ-pores, separated by well-marked intercalary cells. Uredo-sori enclosed in a hemispherical peridium which opens at the summit by a narrow pore; uredospores produced singly, on pedicels, echinu- late, without germ-pores. Teleutospores absfericted in long chains, and remaining united into cylindrical columns which are horny when dry, germinating as soon as mature. Basidio- spores round, very minute. 1.
