Notes

Cunningham (1924a) referred this species to Phragmidium potentilla Karst; in 1930 he described it as an indigenous species occurring only on an indigenous host. It has been recorded only from Otago and is of no economic importance. This species will have to be renamed as the combination Phragoddhon acuminatum is already occupied.
