The results showed that Pileolaria terebinthi, type species of the genus Pileolaria is not a hemi-form or brachy-form rust species as mentioned among literature by several authors. Study on miscellaneous specimens collected from Iran and locus classicus of the species, France, revealed that P. terebinthi is an automacrocyclic rust and its aecial st...

The knowledge of Uredinology in Iran is 160 years old. Since the beginning of study on rust fungi (Pucciniales) in Iran 659 rust taxa (including species and infra specific taxa) have been reported or described from Iran. From this number I have considered 426 species as accepted or GOOD species. These species belong to 21 telemorphic and two anamorphic rust genera reporting on 1133 host taxa from 60 plant families. In the current book, identification keys for all 470 rust taxa on 60 host plant families in Iran are provided.The keys have been arranged under host families, genera and tribes which are arranged alphabetically.
This volume is the first in a book series titled “Biodiversity of rust fungi in Iran”. The book starts with History of Uredinology in Iran. Taxonomy of Pucciniales, morphological features of rust fungi, taxonomic criteria in rust fungi identification at various levels, life cycles including terminology of life cycle in rust fungi and methodology for rust fungi identification are discussed in following chapters. The next part of the book contains identification keys including identification keys for the families and genera of rust fungi (including anamorphic forms) in Iran. All 10 families and 21 genera of rust fungi reported from Iran are comprehensively described. All genera are also documented by original photomicrographs. In the final chapter of the book, the ecology of rust fungi in Iran is discussed.
In the present study, two species of rosaceous rust fungi are reported from Iran. Ochropsora ariae is newly reported for Iranian rust mycobiota. This is the first report of a member of the genus Ochropsora from Iran. Kuehneola uredinis is reported for the second time from Iran since its first report in 1958 under the name K. albida. Pyrus
boissieriana is reported as a new host (matrix nova) for O. ariae. Rubus hirtus is also a new host for K. uredinis in Iran. Both identified rust species are documented by descriptions and LM photomicrographs.
