These are at first pale green, at length often becoming red or brownish. When full grown the surface is covered with a delicate whitish bloom, due to the presence of innumerable minute conidia, produced by budding in a yeast-like fashion from the basidiosi)ores. The mycelium is very al)undant between the cells at the jeriphery of the gall, but scanty elsewhere. .Small globose haustoria are present in the cells of the host. Basidia covering the surface of the galls, clavate, sterigmata
