Aeciospores catenate, 24 × 26 μm, cinnamon brown, verrucose. Telia scattered or grouped, teliospore mass cylindrical or slightly compressed with an acute or slightly forked apex, yellowish brown, 5–10 × 0.7–1.5 mm, on elongate, fusiform swellings; on branches. Teliospores lanceolate, 2-celled, 50–80 × 13–20 μm, golden yellow, smooth; pedicel persistent.

Notes

Pathogenicity

Significance: None. The rust has been found only once near Milton, on an isolated Juniperus communis (juniper) tree in an old garden and on adjacent Crataegus monogyna (hawthorn) hedges. It has not been found since the removal of the host juniper tree on which it was present.; Host(s): Aecia on Crataegus monogyna; telia on Juniperus communis.
