Cffiomata on Euonymus europaeus, August, September, rather rare; uredo- and teleutospores on Salix aiirita, S. Caprea, S. cinerea. (Fig. 256.). Fig. 256. M. Euonymi- Caprearum. Old dead leaf of S. Caprea, show- ingteleuto-sori on lower face (slightly reduced). Fischer records the cseoina in Switzerland in May and June. The distinction of this species from the preceding one (apart from the secidial host) lies in the teleuto-sori ; these are hypophyllous and subepidermal, while those of M. Larici-Gaprearum are epiphyllous and subcuticular. It is not certain, however, that this distinction is absolute ; Fischer in a culture on *S'. cinerea obtained a few teleuto-sori showing also the latter characters. There is a further difference in the form of the teleutospores. 3. Melampsora Larici-epitea Kleb. (emend. Fischer). Uredo epitea K. et S. Mycol. Heft. i. 68. Lecythea epitea Lev. ; Cooke, Micr.
