Abstract
A RECENTLY published account by H. F. Bain describes the isolation from unsterilized roots of Vacciniurti macrocarpon growing in America of a mycorrhizal fungus specifically distinct from the Phoma radicis isolated by Ternetz from sterilized roots of native Swiss species of Vaccinium in 1907. In view of this discrepancy, M. C. Rayner and I. Levisohn have investigated British material of Vaccinium Oxycoccus, and now record that the fungus isolated by them from sterilized roots of this species agrees in every particular with that isolated by Ternetz.
