The malt series of 12 pH values from to showed growth from to , although growth was slow at the extremes of the range, particularly at the acid end. Optimum growth occurred between 5 5 and On Elliott's medium at pH values from to , growth was obtained from to , with an optimum range betweeen and 6 5 The malt series was inoculated with mycelium, while conidia were used with Ji»lliott s medium. Growth of different cultures of the fungus collected from various locali- ties showed no tendency toward morphological variation when grown upon 2 per cent malt agar in Petri dishes. Numerous varieties of Dematium pullulans have been described, but the variety with which we are here con- cerned cannot be placed satisfactorily among these. In the character of its nodose hyphae it resembles var. fimicola Marchal, but differs markedly from It m spore characters.
