In the larger number of genera and species the spores are small bodies, but in some, as for instance in the Pertusariae and in some Pyrenocarpeae, they exceed in size all known fungus spores. In Varicellaria microsticta, a rare crustaceous lichen of high moun- tains, the solitary i-septate spore measu

The spores lie close together and form a small group of usually six small round delicate cells, which occupy the apex or a part of one side of the ascus ; they are all alike when quite young and were probably therefore formed simultaneously, but they develope very unequally; the mat

These constitute the protective sheath (fig. 30 c), by the decay of which, after the disappearance of the nutritive hyphae and later of the ascus walls, the spores are finally set free. The ascospores are spherical or lenticular often with a sculptured epispore. In most species of Penicillium reproduction takes place almost entirely by means of the abundant conidia borne in chains on the branched, brush- like conidiophores (fig. 31). Asc

This large class includes chlorophyll-less plants which differ much in size and appearance, but which agree in producing their fruit-spores (carpo- spores) in sacs (asci), and because they are in sacs they are called sac-spores or ascospores. These spore-bearing sacs (singular, ascus; plural, asci) are end- cells in the sporogenous tissue of the fru

During rainy periods, these sacs swell and a certain number are forced up through a tube leading from each cavity to the black mouths at the tips of the papillae. Once out- side, the sacs burst and the eight spores in each are shot into the air where they are carried away by the wind to great distances. It is these wind-blown ascospores which account for the extreme rapidity of spread of this fungus and make certain the i
