Abstract

DELACROIXIA CORONATA (Cost.) Sacc. and Sydow. Figs. 4, 5. This interesting member of the Entomophthoraceae was first described by Costantin from France as Boudierella coronata (Bull. Soc. Myc. France 13: 38. 1897) and shortly afterwards transferred by Saccardo and Sydow (Syll. Fung. 14: 475. 1900) to Delacroixia. In the United States it was first isolated in Wisconsin by Gilbert (Trans. Am. Microsc. Soc. 38: 263-269. 1919), who did not, however, ascribe a name to it. A few years later it was isolated from wood in Iowa and published, on what at that time seemed sufficient warrant, as Conidiobolus villosus Martin (Bot. Gazette 80: 311-318. 1925). Kevorkian (Jour. Agr. Puerto Rico 21: 191-200. 1937) transferred the species to Entomophthora, but Couch (Am. Jour. Bot. 26: 128. 1939) expressed the opinion that it should be retained in Delacroixia, in which conclusion I concur.
