Puccinia obtegens (Link) Tul. 1854

Both rust and host [Cirsium arvense] are introduced. The host is a troublesome weed throughout New Zealand. Experiments have been carried out without success to use this rust as a biological control of this weed (Cunningham, 1927a) but it has always proved impossible to establish a heavy enough infection to eradicate the weed.
