The toadstool and the spores of this fungus,both after Cobb, are shown in Figs. 62 and 63. This is one of the more serious cane was first observed in Java by Wakker, whereit is prominent in nurseries. In the West Indiesit appears on plantation cane. The disease ischaracterized by the presence of a white myceliumgluing the leaf sheath to the basal part of thestem. The mycelial strands penetrate into theground and cause a decay of the roots, cuttingoff the water supply and thus giving to thecane the appearance of the results of appearance of the toadstools is very un-common. Johnston^^ states that in some cases they only appear in rainyweather and sometimes only during the dry season. The disease has beenreported from Java, and generally through the West X550, Fig. 6i THE PESTS AND DISEASES OF THE CANE 163 Marasmius Sfenophylhis.^^—Pileus thin soft, fleshy^but tough and persistent,convex to irregularly expanded, umbilicate, becoming eccentric with age, gregariousto cespitose, 1-4 cm. broad ; surface minutely fibrillose to glabrous, radiaterugose, hygrophanous, pale-yellowish white to pale-reddish tan, maigin concolorous,incurved when young, lamellae adnate with a slight collar, rare short decurrent, ratherdistant, broad, inserted, the long ones ventricose, whiteinterveined,oftenforking; sporesellipsoid, smooth, hyaline, about 7-9x5-6 microns; stipewhite, tough, cylindric, tapering upward, usually curved,glabrous, white at the apex, pale reddish below, whitishmycelial at the base, solid or spongy, at first central, oftenstrongly eccentric with age, 1-4 cms. long, 1-2 thick.
