(After de Bary.) Phytophthora, which resemble those of Peronospora in general habit, differ from them in the fact that each branch bears more than one pro- pagating body—not in chains, like Cystopus, but at intervals on the branch. In P. infestans a propagating cell is produced at the apex of each branch ; and as it ripens a papilla-like swelling
