Notes on Distribution and Spore Ornamentation of Mycolevis Siccigleba (Basidiomycetes, Cribbeaceae)

Abstract

Both of these fungi appear to be pathogenic to the host and in view of the weed potential of Argemone mexicana, further studies on the growth-limiting capabilities of these fungi would be desirable. We are most grateful to Dr. F. A. Uecker for his generous and able assistance in the preparation of prints and the photographic plate and we thank Miss Edith Cash for the Latin diagnosis, Drs. M. Gilliam and M. Farr for reviewing the manuscript and Dr. D. Farr for his suggestions.
