“Sporisorium sorghi. Sp. acervis ovalibus, sporidiis globosis
nigris germinuin.
“ Diagn. -Substantia farinosa germinimi Sorghi vulgaris pri
mum rimis variis separatur ita ut semina hient. Turn spondia
onuntur, usque dum tota compages interior germinis in sporidia
dilapsa sit. Excrescunt quoque glumae in apicibus ramulorum
paniculae, sporidia et partes floris mutilas continentes. Sub micro-
scopio composito acervi compacti conspiciuntur, aqua adfusa non
diffluentes, e quibus flocci simplices aut semel ramosi exeunt tenues
septati, pauci tantum e singulo acervo. Sporidia compressis acervis
in conspectum prodeunt exacte globosa sat magna, minora majori-
bus intermixta.” II. F. Link in Lin né Species Plantarum,
