... throughout humid subtropical forests of the east coast of Queensland [ANPSA. Australian Society of native plants, available at http://www. asgap.org.au/a-smi.html (2010) Voucher specimens of Acmena smithii plants were sent to Plantarum Institute for confirmation of the species. Thus, leaf samples with symptoms and signs on both the abaxial (Fig. 1 A) and the adaxial surface ( Fig. 1 B and C) were collected and taken to the Laboratory of Forest Pathology of the same institution, where they were observed under stereomicroscope and microscope. The pathogen was identified as a basidiomycete of the order Uredinales, Puccinia psidii, a pathogenic ...
