II. Uredosori hypophyllous, scattered, orbicular, 0.5-1 mm. diam., pulverulent, pallid lemon-yellow, deeply immersed in the tomentum of the leaf. Spores subglobose or obovate, 24-30 x 20-24 mmm. ; epispore hyaline, 1 mmm. thick, finely and closely covered with small round-topped deciduous verrucae; germ pores equatorial, 3-4, not definite, appearing usually as thin places in the wall; immixed with numerous cylindrical, hyaline paraphyses.

Cunningham (1928) recorded the uredospore stage of this rust as Uredo moschata. Both host [Olearia moschata] and rust are endemic to New Zealand; it has been collected only from one locality in Canterbury.
