HYALOPSORA. 


The genus should follow Milesia, and becomes no. 10. In the description of the 
genus, the key to species, and the descriptions of the four species which follow, the 
terms “‘ aecia’’ and “ aeciospores ”’ should be understood as applying to the large-sized 
form of uredinia and urediniospores. 

Replace the first paragraph describing the genus by: 

Cycle of development includes pyenia, aecia, two forms of uredinia, and telia, with 
distinct alternating phases; heteroecious. Pycnia, aecia and uredinia subepidermal, 
telia within epidermal cells. 

Pyenia depressed-conoidal or lenticular in section, without ostiolar filaments. 

Aecia erumpent, definite. Peridium cylindric, colorless or nearly so, with medium- 
thick walls. Aeciospores globoid or ellipsoid; wall colorless, thin, verrucose.

conspicuum Bell, Bot. Gaz. 77: 25. 1924. 

Insert after the synonymy: 

O. Pyenia on two-year old leaves chiefly, hypophyllous, on slightly yellowish spots, 
usually in two rows, rounded or ellipsoid, yellowish-brown becoming darker, in section 
transversely lenticular, 300-360 u broad, 100-150 u high; pycniospores globoid, colorless, 
about 3 » in diameter. 

I. Aecia on three-year old leaves, hypophyllous, on yellowish spots, usually in two 
rows, cylindric or nearly so, 0.5-0.8 mm. in diameter, 1 mm. high, deep-seated; peridium 
colorless becoming yellowish; peridial cells angularly isodiametric in face view, 16 by 
26 uw in diameter, rhomboidal in section, strongly overlapping, the outer wall 4—5 u thick, 
smooth, the inner wall thicker, 6-8 1, conspicuously verrucose; aeciospores globoid or 
broadly ellipsoid, 16-19 by 21-254; wall colorless, thin, 1 or less, very finely and 
closely verrucose. 

On PINACEAE: 
Abies balsamea (L.) Mill., Ontario, Quebec. 

In the description of the species under I, before the words “ indistinctly verrucose,” 
insert the words “‘ smooth or’’; similarly under IJ, before the words ‘‘ minutely verru- 
cose,’’ insert ‘‘ smooth or.”

verrucose, the pores several, scattered.

NORTH AMERICAN BLORA [VOLUME 7 


® 

O. Pycnia chiefly epiphyllous, scattered, noticeable, honey-yellow becoming brownish, 
cclumnar, projecting considerably above the surface of the epidermis, 87-100 u high by 
50-80 uw in diameter. 

III. Telia closely resembling morphologically the aecia of Gymnoconia interstitials, 
chiefly hypophyllous, from a perennial mycelium, causing some hypertrophy and dwarfing 
of the host, usually crowded and even confluent, occupying part or all of the under surface 
of the leaf-blades, applanate, irregular, 0.5—1.5 mm. across, soon naked, somewhat waxy, 
bright- usually reddish-orange when fresh, fading to pale-yellow, ruptured epidermis 
conspicuous; teliospores globoid or oblong, 15—23 by 17—28 yu; wall colorless, about 1.5 u 
thick, evenly and finely verrucose, the pores obscure, 6—10, scattered.

25c. SKIERKA Racib. Par. Algen Pilze Javas 2: 30. 1900. 


Cycle of development includes pycnia, uredinia, and telia. Pycnia and other sori 
subepidermal. 

Pycnia discoidal; ostiolar filaments apparently wanting. 

Uredinia opening by a pore in the epidermis, without peridia or paraphyses. Uredinio- 
spores borne singly on pedicels from a flat hymenium; wall colored, echinulate or verru- 
cose, and more or less ridged, the pores indistinct. 

Telia opening by a pore in the epidermis, without paraphyses. Teliospores one-celled, 
more or less fusiform, arising from an essentially flat hymenium, breaking from pedicel 
to show the hilum, and issuing from the ostiole in a mucilaginous filament; wall colorless 
or nearly so, smooth, the outer layer becoming mucilaginous, the pores one in each 
spore, apical, indistinct. 

Type species, Skierka Canarit Racib. (on Canarium commune).
