Gymnoconia interstitialis

Back to the Eleanor Yarrow Index

This is our only representative of the rust fungi, a large group of parasites of plants. They get their name from the color of the mature teliospores, which are usually bright rusty or yellow. The German word for them is Brandpilze, which means "flame fungi."
