. Botanisk tidsskrift. Plants; Plants -- Denmark. Woltke (Urospora p. 69) distinctly points out that the zoospores of this species are produced by successive divisions, while the zoospores of Urospora mirabilis Schmitz (cfr. my footnote p. 361) are produced by simultaneous divisions. I have in my material of U. mirabilis never seen the mother-cells of the zoospores in stages of divisions, which distinctly show successive divisions, and I have also never seen the parietal proto- plasm divided into numerous six-sided portions as in Urospora Worm- skioldii (Rosenv. Grl. Havalg. p. 920) and U. inc

(l!26: 1.) Urospora Hiirtzii Rosenv. Grl. Havalg. p. 922, fig. 38. The specimens which I have referred to this species are up to 4 cm. long, 29—60^ thick below and 87 — 120// thick above. The relation between the length and the breadth of the cells varies from V2 to 1V2. The cells of the lower part of the filaments, above the rhizoids are usually short, but filaments with elongated cells above the uppermost rhizoid-bearing cell, as in Urospora Wormskioldii, also occur. The upper part of the filaments of my specimens is usually fructiferous and contains longer cells. As far as I can see in my material the young filaments seem to be divided over the whole, but as the upper part of the filaments becomes fructiferous the vegetative divisions are localized rn the lower part.
