. The British rust fungi (Uredinales), their biology and classification. Uredineae. 86 UROMYCES The species are arranged according to the families to which the hosts belong: see Puccinia. This genus is often considered the most highly (at least the latest) evolved of the Uredinales; but rather it forms a heterogeneous group, the species of which have arisen at different times from various species of Puccinia. 1.

Epiphyllous, in small clusters, honey- coloured, turning black. jEcidiospores. yEcidia hypophyllous, and often on the nerves, petioles and stalks, seated on pale thickened spots, densely aggregated or circinate, cup-shaped, whitish-yellow; margin revolute and torn ; spores covered with minute crowded warts, yellow, 18—25 x 16—20 fi. Uredospores. Sori amphigenous, usually on indefinite yellow spots, scattered or aggregated here and there, minute, punctiform,. pulverulent, brown;. spores globose to broadly ellipsoid, verrucose-echinulate, yellowish-brown or brown, 21^— 28 /i,; epispore 2|—3 p, thick, with two or three germ-pores. Teleatospores. Sori similar, but longer covered by the epidermis, dark-brown; spores ellip- soid or ovate, with a flat subhyaline papilla at the summit, smooth, pale clear-brown 20—30 x 13 —21 /i; epi- spore thin, scarcely thickened above ; pedicels short, thin, hyaline, rather.
