(A, natural size; B X 10; C X 350; D, E X 400; after Dietel, 1906.) the sporiferous hyphae regularly produce two teliospores without cysts. Still others, as U. maritimum, develop two teliospores (Fig. 389, 6 and 7) above a third cell from which a cyst is developed; here also, in an excep- tional case, the cyst may be replaced by a third teliospore. And finally in the highest forms, , U. Tepperianum, three teliospores without cysts are regularly formed on the stipe cells. In Ravenelia (Fig. 392), a very significant development of spore heads appears (Parker, 1887; Dietel, 1906). The first fundament of the heads.
