Although some writers apply the terms spore, sporidia, sporoph.o.r.e, sporules, and conidia somewhat indiscriminately to all spore bodies, in order to avoid confusion, it is now recommended by the best authorities that certain distinctive limitations should be adhered to in the use of these terms. Saccardo, in defining the terms which he employs, accepts the term spores as applicable exclusively to the naked spores supported on basidia, as found in the Basidiomyceteae. The term sporidia he limits to spores produced or enclosed in an ascus, as in the Ascomyceteae. The term sporules he applies to the spores of imperfect fungi, where they are enclosed in perithecia (microscopic cups or cells), such as the Sphaeropsidea. The term conidia he uses to designate the spores of imperfect fungi without perithecia or asci, such as the Hyphomyceteae and the Melanconieae. This arrangement is in accordance with M. C. Cooke's published views on the subject, except in the case of the spore bodies of the Melanconieae, which he prefers, for well-defined reasons, to call sporules.
In accordance with these limitations, the terms _spermatia_, _stylospores_, and _clinospores_ are merged in _sporule_.
Other terms appropriate to their development are employed to designate the spores of Uredineae, Phycomyceteae, etc.
