ANNOUNCEMENT

NortH AMERICAN Flora is designed to present in one work descriptions
of all plants growing, independent of cultivation, in North America, here taken
to include Greenland, Central America, the Republic of Panama, and the West
Indies, except Trinidad, ‘Tobago, and Curacao and other islands off the north
coast of Venezuela, whose flora is essentially South American.

The work will be published in parts at irregular intervals, by the New
York Botanical Garden, through the aid of the income of the David Lydig Fund
bequeathed by Charles P. Daly.

It is planned to issue parts as rapidly as they can be prepared, the ex-
tent of the work making it possible to commence publication at any number of
points. The completed work will form a series of volumes with the following
sequence:

Volume 1. Myxomycetes, Schizophyta.

Volumes 2 to 10. Fungi.

Volumes 11 to 13. Algae.

Volumes 14 and 15. Bryophyta.

Volume 16. Pteridophyta and Gymmnospermae.

Volumes 17 to 19. Monocotyledones.

Volumes 20 to 34. Dicotyledones.

The preparation of the work has been referred by the Scientific Direc-
tors of the Garden to a committee consisting of Dr. N. L. Britton, Dr. W. A.
Murrill, and Dr. J. H. Barnhart.

Professor John M. Coulter, of the University of Chicago; Mr. Frederick
V. Coville, of the United States Department of Agriculture; and Professor
William Trelease, of the University of Illinois, have consented to act as an
advisory committee.

Each author will be wholly responsible for his own contributions, being
restricted only by the general style adopted for the work, which must vary
somewhat in the treatment of diverse groups.

The subscription price is flxed at $1.50 for each part; it is expected that
four or five parts will be required for each volume. A limited number of separate
parts will be sold at $2.00 each. Address:

Class DEUTEROMYCETES

The fungi included in this very large group comprise a variety of forms
which are similar to the conidial stages of some of the ascomycetes. Many of
the forms doubtless represent the conidial stage of ascomycetes whose life
histories have not been worked out, while others may have entirely lost their
perfect stages. Other species which are considered imperfect fungi may never
have had such connection but are included because of their analogy with those
forms which are known or are suspected to have such relationship. The plants
of this group are classified in orders and families in the same manner as the
perfect fungi. The genera are usually treated in the same manner as the form-
genera in other polymorphic fungi such as the rusts. As in other form-genera
in the parasitic forms the hosts play an important part in the determination
of species.

Order PHYLLOSTICTALES*
By Frep Jay SEAVER

Spores (conidia) produced in perithecium-like bodies which are known as
pycnidia, the pycnidia globose, subglobose, or more or less elongate, either
entirely closed or opening by means of a pore or ostiolum, or a slit-like aper-
ture, or more rarely with the spore-surface freely exposed at maturity. Spores
globose to filiform or vermiform, hyaline or colored, simple or compound, when
compound I-septate to many-septate or muriform.

Pycnidia more or less globose or flask-shaped.
Pycnidial wall black, membranaceous, leathery, or carbona--

ceous. Fam. 1. PHYLLOSTICTACEAE..
Pycnidial wall and stroma bright-colored, fleshy or waxy. Fam. 2, ASCHERSONIACEAE.
Pycnidia not globose or flask-shaped.
Pyenidia more or less superficial, shield-shaped, opening with
a slit-like aperture. Fam. 3. LEPTOSTROMATACEAR.
Pyenidia more or less scutellate, at first closed, the fruiting ,
surface finally freely exposed. ‘am. 4, ExcIPULACEAE.

* Used in place of Sphaeropsidales. The genus Sphaeropsis was founded by Léveillé
in 1842 (Demidoff, Voyage 2: 112) upon Sphacropsis conica Lév. which is a synonym of Am-
phisphaeria conica, an ascomycete. Since the generic name Sphaeropsis goes out of the order,
the name Sphaeropsidales becomes untenable and is here replaced by the name Phyllostictales.

(This list includes a few species overlooked until the foregoing treatment of the genus was

in press.)

PHYLLOSTICTA AFFINIS Ellis & Kellerm. Am. Nat. 17: 1165. 1883. Reported on Sassa-

fras Sassafras (1,.) Karst.

PayiLosticta Atripiicis Desmaz. Ann. Sci. Nat. III. 16: 298.
has been reported from several localities.

Wis. Acad. 19: 683).

PuyyLosticta AUERSWALDIT Allesch. in Rab. Krypt.-Fl. 15: 25.

1851.

Said by Ellis (N. Am. Phyllost. 43) to be identical with Gloeo-

This has
(Bull. N. J. Exp. Sta.

This species
Thought to be a Septoria or Stagonospora (Trans.

Reported

from New Jersey on leaves of Buxus sempervirens L. (cult.). (Bull. N. J. Exp. Sta. 313: 62.)

PuviLosticta CHENOPODIE Westend.; Westend. & Wall. Herb. Crypt. 959. 1854. Al-
though frequently reported from North America on Chenopodium album L., all of the speci-
mens examined have been found to be a Septoria. In fact, Winter (Rab.-Wint. Fungi Eur.
3500. 1886) has made this a Septoria and adopted the name Septoria Westendorpii since
there was previously a Septoria Chenopodii Westend. According to Ellis the species can
scarcely be distinguished from Septoria Atriplicis (Desm.) Ellis & Ev.

PHYLLOSTICTA CISSICOLA Speg. Anal. Mus. Nac. Buenos Aires HI. 13: 332. 1910. This
species has been reported from Porto Rico (Mycologia 8: 147) on Cissus sicyoides L. Speci-
mens examined seem to be sterile.

84 NORTH AMERICAN FLORA [VOLUME 6

PHYLLosTicTa Ciusiakz F. 1. Stevens, Trans. Ill. Acad. 10: 195. 1918. Not P. Clusiae
Allesch.; P. Henn. Hedwigia 36: 237. 1897. The name is untenable, having been previously
used for a species which apparently has different spore-characters. Described from Porto
Rico, on Clusia rosea Jacq.

PayLLosticra CoLocasise Hohnel, Sitz-ber. Akad. Wien 116!: 142. 1907. Reported
on Dieffenbachia sp. in Porto Rico by Miss Esther Young (Mycologia 7: 144).

PHyLuosticta coLocasicoLa Hoéhnel, Sitz-ber. Akad. Wien 116!: 142. 1907. Re-
ported on Caladium sp. (Colocasia sp.) in Porto Rico by Miss Esther Young (Mycologia
7:144). In the specimen examined the spores are much larger than indicated for this species.

PHYLLOSTICTA CORYLINA Ellis & Martin, Am. Nat. 18: 1264. 1884. ‘This is said to be
a synonym of Gloeosporium Coryli (Desm.) Sacc. It occurs on Corylus americana Walt.

PHYLLOSTICTA CRATAEGICOLA Sacc. Syll. Fung. 3:6. 1884. Phyllosticta Crataegi Speg.
Michelia 1: 483. 1879. This species has been reported by Dr. J. F. Brenckle from Kulm,
North Dakota, on Crataegus mollis (T. & G.) Scheele. (Mycologia 10: 218.)

PHYLLOSTICTA FILIPENDULINA Sacc. & Speg.; Sacc. Michelia 1: 276. 1878. Phyllos-
ticta Filipendulae Sacc. & Speg.; Sacc. Michelia 1: 150. 1878. Not P. Filipendulae Sace.
Michelia 1: 145. 1878. A specimen collected at Lyndonville, New York, on Spiraea hyper-
icifolia and referred to this species has colored spores and is probably not a good Phyllosticta,

PHYLLOSTICTA HELLEBORICOLA Coptipis Sacc. & Scalia; Sacc. Harriman Alaska Exp.
Crypt. 21. 1904. The variety has been reported from Unalaska on Coptis trifolia (L.)}
Salisb. Neither the species nor the variety has been seen by the writer.

PHYLLOSTICTA INNUMERA Cooke & Hark. Grevillea 9: 84. 1881. No host is given and
the identity of the species is uncertain.

Puy.iosticta LANTANAE F. L Stevens, Trans. Ill. Acad. 10: 195. 1918. Not Phyllos-
ticta Lantanae Pass. Erb. Critt. Ital. II. 1290. 1882. The name is untenable. The species
was described on Lantana from Porto Rico.

Puyiz,osticta Leucocarpar Atk. Bull. Cornell Univ. 3: 31. 1897. The species was
described by Atkinson from near Pike Road, Alabama, on Pyrus leucocarpa. No record of
such a host could be found. On Sept. 18, 1918, a letter of inquiry was addressed to Prof.
Atkinson which reached him while on his western trip. In his reply he stated that he could
not look the matter up until his return to Ithaca; his death occurred shortly after.

PHyuLosticta Lycunipis (Kunze & Schmidt) Ellis & Ev. N. Am. Phyllost. 59. 1900.
Sphaeria Lychnidis Kunze & Schmidt, Myk. Hefte 2: 53. 1823. Specimens distributed by
Ellis & Ev. in N. Am. Fungi 2839 are said to be sterile and therefore doubtful. Reported on
Lychnis alba Mill. (L. vespertina Sibth.).

PHYLLOSTICTA MACULIFORMIS Sacc. Michelia 2: 538. 1882. Reported on fallen leaves
of Alnus rugosa (Du Roi) Spreng., from Indian Lake, New York. (Bull. N. Y. State Mus.
197: 49.)

PuyiLosticta Muprcacinis (Fuckel) Sacc. Syll. Fung. 3: 42. 1884.. Ascochyia Medi-
caginis Fuckel, Fungi Rhen. 488. 1863, This has been reported on Medicago sativa L., and
is thought by some to represent the pycnidial stage of Pyrenopeziza Medicaginis Fuckel.

PHyLLosticta Papi Brunaud, Soc. Sci. Nat. Charente-Infér. Ann. 26:52. 1890. Orig-
inally reported on Prunus Padus. Recorded for North America on Padus virginiana (L.)
Mill. See Barth. Fungi Columb. 4655.

PHYLLOSTICTA PANDANICOLA E. Young, Mycologia 7: 150. 1915. The mature spores
of this species appear to be 1-septate, which would put it in the genus Ascochyta.

PHYLLOSTICTA PYRINA Sacc. Michelia 1: 134. 1878. According to J. L. Sheldon (Tor-
reya 7: 143) thisiaa Coniothyrium and hasbeen called by him Coniothyrium pyrinum. On
Pyrus communis. Widely distributed in Eastern United States.

PHYLLOSTICTA RENOUANA Sacc. & Roum. Rev. Myc. 6: 32. 1884. Reported by J. J.
Davis from Wisconsin on Typha latifolia 1. (Trans. Wis. Acad. 17: 865.)
