Description.

Spermogonia usually epiphyllous, located on the opposite side of the telia in small groups, globose, 140-150 µm in diameter, yellowish-brown, with abundant and outward growing periphyses (Fig. 4). Telia mostly hypophyllous, occasionally on upper side of leaves and on petioles, round, compact, mostly in aggregated groups up to 3 mm in diameter, reddish-brown (Fig. 2). Teliospores diverse, with many anomalies because of the concretion of spores, mostly narrowly fusoid or linear, 31 –81(– 95) × 10.5-20 (-25) µm, attenuated above and below or notched at apex, not or hardly constricted at septum, wall smooth, hyaline to yellowish, 1.5-3 µm at sides, 3-8 µm at apex, pedicel hyaline, thick walled, persistent up to µm 150 µm (Fig. 3). One-celled and three-celled spores were rarely seen.
