The cluster cups appear on the leavesof native species of apples (Mains). The most important publication dealing with this disease and giving 212 MYCOLOGY a copiousbibliography is one by Howard L. Reed and C. W. Crabill issuedas Technical Bulletin 9 (May, 1915) by the Virginia Agricultural Experi-ment Station. The 106 pages of text are devoted to a careful considera-tion of all aspects of the disease, which is prevalent throughout thegeographic range of the red cedar. The aecia are found on the appleand were originally described as Roestelia pyrata (Schw.) Thaxter,and frequently the apple stage is known as the Roestelia stage (). Infection of the leaves (Fig. 80) and fruit is only possibleduring their undeveloped condition and not all varieties of apple aresusceptible. Some are rust free. Such are Early
