CLUSTER-CUPS ON ANEMONECORONAKIA, L. The parasitic fungi popularly known as Cluster-cups, on account of the spores beingcontained in little cup like stiuctures, producedin clusters on the living leaves of various plants,are very abundant this jear. The species calledjEoidium punctatum, Pers. (fig. 4),is exceptionallyabundant, covering the under suiface of theleaves of Anemone coronaria, L., with its tinycups with toothed edges. Diseased plants arereadily recognised, even at a distance, by the.

After being once infecteda plant never blooms, and all diseased plantsshould be removed and destroyed, because duringthose seasons when spores are produced thedanger of infecting adjoining healthy plants isgreat.
