To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cooke, the great English writer on fungi, divides them into six families. In one of these families the spores are the principal feature. This family is called the " dust fungi " {Coniomycetes). Of course it contains many groups, called families or orders, which are analogous to the natural orders of 44 flowering plants. Without enumerating any of the various characteristics of these orders, I will select one typical plant. The spores are inclosed in a distinct peridium (covering for the seeds).... This is a cup-shaped excrescence on the infested leaves. This order is called ^cidiacei. They are always developed on living plants, sometimes on the flowers, fruit, or stems, but usually on the leaves ; occasionally on the upper surface, but almost always on the under side of the leaf. The different species are distributed widely over the entire world. They may be found on every continent, and on almost every island. When examined they look like minute cups upon the leaf, and hence we call them '^ cluster cups." Besides the generic name they have also added a specific name, generally derived from some plant they are known to infest ; but this must not lead the student to suppose that one species is only found on that particular plant, for most of them infest many plants, yet some, of course, to a greater extent than others.
