Abstract:
Microfungi occuring on Rosaceae in the Sauerland were examined. 38 microfungi from 27 different genera were found, including Ascomycetes of the orders Erysiphales, Helotiales, Hypocreales and Taphrinales and Basidiomycetes of the order Uredinales as well as mitosporic fungi. The examined samples have been collected in the period of march to september 2000. New hosts could be found for the following species: Discosia potentillae Lib., Phragmidium acuminatum (Fr.) Cooke, Stigmina carpophila (Lev.) M.B. Ellis, Seimatosporium pestalozzioides (Sacc.) B. Sutton, Septocyta ruborum (Lib.) Petr. and Zythiostroma mougeotii (Fr.) Höhn. Discosia potentillae Lib. is recorded for the first time for Germany and Cercospora potentillae Chupp & Greene for the first time for Europe.
