Microbotryum pinguiculae has recently been reported from Wales as new to Britain on Pinguicula vulgaris, and we present details of locations and infection rates, and also report a first record for Scotland. We expand previous molecular phylogenetic analyses to include a specimen from Wales, and also examine specimens from Austria infecting Pinguicula leptoceras. All these new collections are referable toM. pinguiculae s.str., demonstrating that this smut species can infect these two closely-related host species. |
