This is the mode of formation according to Gibelli and Griffini, Eidam and Bauke not only in Pleospora herbarum, but also in Cucurbitaria elongata, Leptosphaeria doliolum and two other species not precisely determined, and according.

The mature structure of these pycnidia closely resembles that represented in Fig. 119, only the wall is formed of several layers. Magn. 600 times. FIG. 119. Cici7inobolus Cesati'i (De Bary, Beitr.
