. The British rust fungi (Uredinales) their biology and classification. Rust fungi -- Great Britain. ON 261 Eriksson has divided this species into a number of forms which show- certain differences, chiefly biological : they are given in what follows, but it must be understood that they are distinguished almost entirely by their host-plants. They all show the same scattered, brownish-orange uredo- sori. Some, it is true, have recidia, others are not known to have them, but this is a difference which time may remove ; also Pole-Evans (1907) has shown that they present minute difference

Some, it is true, have recidia, others are not known to have them, but this is a difference which time may remove ; also Pole-Evans (1907) has shown that they present minute differences in the mode of germination of their uredospores. Many authors prefer to consider the biological races which follow as distinct species, but if that is done it is a mistake, which entails continual confusion, to retain the name P. dispersa for one of them. Distribution : Europe, Asia Minor, North America, and in Australia (probably only introduced). (1) PUCCINIA SECALINA 110V. nom. Puccinia dispersa (sens, strict.) Erikss. Ann. Sci.
