THE FUNGI OF INDIA. 159<br />

Microdiplodia agaves (Niessl) Tassi (Sace. XVIII:323; 387:176 as Diplodia<br />

. agaves Niessl; Sacco III:371; 456:200). On leaves of Agave americana,<br />

India (Kurz); of A. sp., Dharwar and Y ttcca aloifolia, Shillong and Pusa<br />

(Butler). Petrak (383:218) suggests that this is the pycnidial stage of his<br />

Pleospora bataanensis. He found also that Niessl's fungus was a Microdiplodia,<br />

but overlooked Tassi's earlier combination.<br />

--indica Syd. (456:201). On living leaves of Iris sp., Srinagar, Rashmir (Butler).<br />

--jasmini Syd. (456:201) .. On dry branches of Jasminum arborescens, Pusa<br />

(Dastur).<br />

Microstroma juglandis (Bereng.) Sacco (Sacc. IV:9; 455:280). On leaves of<br />

Juglans regia, Kumaon Himalaya (Blltlf'r). The systematic position of<br />

this fungus is uncertain. Some have c.onsidered it to be a Basidiomycete<br />

near Exobasiclium, but it is apparently one of the Fungi Imperfecti. Saccardo<br />

and others consider it to belong to the Mucedineac, while Maire, Briosi and<br />

Cavara, and Karakulin refer it to the Melanconiaceae, an opinion supported<br />

by the most recent study of the fungus by]'. A. Wolf in J ourn. Elisha Mitchell<br />
