MOSTLY to be found on the back of the foliage of the Berberry, Berberis vulgaris, more particularly in chilly weather, after cold rains, in spring or autumn, as is the case with all Æcidia. The border is mostly plain, the cup lengthened out, pale yellow, on a deep orange-coloured ground, which, spreading, supports the Fungi in clusters of two, three, or more.

GROWS on the back of the foliage of Mercurialis perennis, or Dogs' Mercury, forming confluent patches without regularity. The filmy covering bursts at the edges, sides, or centre. TAB. CCCXCVIII. on the back of the foliage of some of the Rubi. It is mostly of a light brown, with a fine woolly substance, at or surrounding the base, upon the leaf.

LARGER than the last, mostly of a light yellow. The case containing the farinaceous dust is simple.

LIGHTISH yellow brown, flattish, scattered on the back of the foliage of Mints.

LIGHTISH brown, very flat, scattered on the back of the foliage of Willows.

DARK brown, very frequent on the back of the foliage of Carduus pratensis. Two or three forts of Muscæ, or Flies, are occasionally found dead on this
