Abstract
A new form-genus, Mycopappus, is recognized for fungi producing multicellular, epiphyllous, splash-dispersed propagules previously described under the names Cercosporella alni Dearness and Bartholomew and C. aceris Dearness and Batholomew. Mycopappus alni comb. nov. occurs on Alnus rubra Bong, or A. sinuata (Regel) Rydb. along the Pacific coast from the Alaskan panhandle to Oregon. Mycopappus aceris comb. nov. on Acer macrophyllum Pursh occurs from southern British Columbia to Oregon. Anguillospora vermiformis (Davis) comb. nov. on Alnus rugosa (Du Roi) Spreng. in Wisconsin and A. coryli sp. nov. on Corylus americana Walt, and C. cornuta Marsh, in Wisconsin have been confused with Mycopappus alni. All four species are leaf pathogens.Keywords
