Sori in the leaves. Spores as E. calevdulae. Sporidia not reported on the host.<br />
On Hieracium vulgaium and (fide Plowright, 1889) H. murorum.<br />
Autumn. Scotland (nr. Aberdeen).<br />
Spore germination. Unknown.<br />
Entyloma chrysosplenii (B. & Br.) Schroet.<br />

Spore germination. According to Maire (1900) the spore germinates while still in<br />
the leaf and produces at the apex of the promycelium two to four oblong,<br />
cylindrical sporidia, 15-16x2-5-3 /x.<br />

Spore germination. De Bary (1874) described and figured germination. The<br />
promycelium bears four (sometimes five or six) terminal branches which fuse in<br />
pairs either at the apex or the base, and finally grow out to form mycehum.<br />
Sporidia were not seen. /<br />
