Uromycladium tepperianum (Sacc.) McAlpine 1905

Both rust and hosts [Acacia spp.] are introduced from Australia and are common in the Auckland Province. It forms inflated galls of smaller size than Uromycladium notabile on stems and seed pods of host. As the hosts are only grown as ornamentals the rust is of no economic importance.

Uromycladium tepperianum (Sacc.) McAlpine 1905

Type: Rust and Smut Fungi; Description: Spermagonia dark brown, pustulate, minute, associated with telia on the surface of distorted, inflated, brown galls; on phyllodes, branches, stems, and seed pods. Galls are perennial, up to 5 cm in diameter on branches, smaller on phyllodes and seed pods. Uredinia not known. Teliospores cinnamon brown, powdering the surface of the galls, three in a head on one sporophore; teliospores depressed globose to subglobose, 14–20 × 18–25 μm, cinnamon brown, strongly striate, the striations continuous and converging at the poles; sporophore hyaline, with no lateral vesicle, soon deciduous.
Distribution: Northland, Auckland, Coromandel, Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Taranaki, Taupo, Wanganui, Wellington, Gisborne, Nelson, Mid Canterbury, South Canterbury, Dunedin.; 1st Record: Cunningham (1923a).
Significance: Galls cause dieback of branches and stems. Small trees die if galls form on the main stem. The host species are not grown commercially and the rust has no economic significance.; Host(s): Acacia paradoxa, A. ulicifolia, A. verticillata.
