 CONSISTS  of  little  round  fpliEerute,  of  a  brownilli  
 colour,  profufely  fcattered over  a  rotting  piece  of  fir  
 that  had been worked.  They  are  fo  ftrongly  attached  
 as to  leave  their  bafes  if  we  try  to  rub  them  off.  
 T A B .  CCCXCVI.  
 F I G .  I.  FARINARIA  STELLARIJE.  
 STELLARIJ  gramínea,  and  fometimes  Stellaria holo- 
 Jlea,  are  affefled with  this  in  the  pollen,  fwelling  and  
 burfting  the  anthers,  flirivelling  the  petals,  and  often  
 burfting  from  the  germ,  as  it  ripens:  it  is  of  a  dark  
 brown  colour.  The  fame feems to  be  found  on Bromus  
 mollis and  fome  other  graffes,  &c.  
 F I G .  2.  F.  SCABIOS.®.  
 SEEMS  a parafitical deftroyer  of  the  pollen  of  the  
 Scabiofa  arvenfis (Field  Scabious),  filling  the  anthera  fo  
 copiouily  that  it  is foon fcattered  all  over  the  flower,  
 giving  it  the  appearance  of  having  been  rubbed  in  a  
 dufty  road,  the  powder  being  of  a  lightifli brown  colour. 
   
 F I G .  3.  F.  SPH«ROIDEA.  
 FORMED  partly within the  flem  oiAgaricus  elephantinus, 
   in  the  latter  flirivelled  and  carbonated  or  black  
 ñate,' fometimes  emerging  half  way,  or more.  This  is  
 rather  more  cruftaceous  on  the  outfide  than  FarinarU  
 generally  are.  The  colour  is  ferruginous.  
 F I G .  4.  F.  CARBONARIA.  
 SWELLS  the  feeds  of  Carex  micheliana,  diflorting  
 them  into  an  oblong  curved  black  body.  
 F I G .  5.  F.  VARIA.  
 THIS  was  found  on  fome  mouldy  French  berries.  
 It is black,  and  of  various  ihapes.  
 F I G .  6.  F.  PO^.  
 COMMON  on  Poa  fluitans,  {Sm. Fl.  Brit.  p.  95.)  In  
 the  early  flowering  of  the  plant  it  begins  to  fwell  
 the  feeds, that  are  afFeaed  very  confpicuoufly.  In  the  
 latter  ftate  they  become  lengthened  and  curved,  the  
 outfide  emitting  a  farinaceous-looking  daft.  
 F i s .  7.  F.  TRI-FOLII.  
 ROUND  black  particles,  in  clufters,  found  on  the  
 bark  of  the  foliage  of  Trifolium fragiferum,  or  Strawberry  
 Trefoil,  in  damp weather,  early  in  the  autumn,  
 while  the  flowers  of  the  plant  are  in  full  perfe6lion.

 F I G .  I.  ^CIDIUM  TUSSILAGINIS.  
 G R O W S  in  fmall  fcattered  clufters on  the  back  of  
 the  leaf of  Tuffilago  Petajites, or Butterbur.  The  border  
 is roundifli,  fomewhat  regular,  cracking,  and  reflexed,  
 of  a light  yellowifti  brown,  lighteft on  the infide.  
 FJG.  2.  JE.  TRAGOPOGINIS.  
 MOSTLY  fingle,  fcattered,  fmaller  than  the  laft,  
 lighter  coloured,  and  fometimes  plain,  as  if  rubbed,  
 not being  fo well  fecured  as the  laft  is  by  the  woolly  
 leaf  Thefe  are  poifibly  varieties  of  each  other.  The  
 j^.  fragopoginisteem^  to  contraft  and  fpoil  the  growth  
 of  the  foliage,  &c.  
 FIG.  3.  JS..  CoRNi.  
 FORMS  a largiili  clufter  or  two  on  the  back  of  the  
 foliage  of  the  Cornus fanguinea.  Its  border  is  moftly  
 plain.  The  Fungi  are  crowded,  and  fitting  on  an  
 orange-coloured  rifing  fubftance, darker than the  cafes,  
 which  are,  however,  fomewhat  tinged, as it were,  by  
 it  at  their  bafes.  
 F I G .  4.  JE.  RANUNCULI.  
 NEARLY  like  the laft, though  fomewhat  paler,  and  
 more  fcattered over  the  back  of the  foliage.  It  is  inoft  
 common  on  the  Pilewort,  or  Ranunculus  Ficaria.
