A1 - Kummer, Volker T1 - New records of powdery mildew fungi (Erysiphaceae) N2 - The conidial stage and chasmothecia of Golovinomyces orontii have been found in Germany on cultivated Limnanthes douglasii. A powdery mildew anamorph found in the Netherlands on Malva alcea agrees morphologically with the Oidium of the latter species as well. Golovinomyces sp. (anamorph) on Parthenium integrifolium is described and discussed. Erysiphe sp. has been found in Germany on Acer opalus, and E. magnifica is recorded from Germany and Switzerland on Magnolia spp. Oidium passiflorae is new to Switzerland. An Oidium morphologically agreeing with the anamorph of Podosphaera aphanis has recently been collected on Exacum macranthum cultivated in a greenhouse, and conidiophores and conidia of a species of Podosphaera sect. Sphaerotheca subsect. Magnicellulatae (P. fusca complex) on Phlox paniculata and Polemonium caeruleum have been found in Germany.

T1 - Taxonomy and nomenclature of powdery mildew fungi : erysiphe asclepiadis, E. robiniicola and Golovinomyces caulicola N2 - The new species Erysiphe asclepiadis is described, illustrated and discussed. A new Chinese collection of Erysiphe robiniicola has recently been found that can be used to elucidate and discuss the confused taxonomy and nomenclature of this species and other taxa of Erysiphe s. lat. on Robinia spp. Based on a re-examination of type material in connection with the data given in the protologue, it can be shown that Capnodium lygodesmiae must be reduced to synonymy with Ampelomyces quisqualis. The confusion surrounding the name C. lygodesmiae, caused by the occurrence of the hyperparasite A. quisqualis on a powdery mildew fungus with abundant chasmothecia, is discussed in detail. The new combination, Golovinomyces caulicola (; Spolverinia caulicola), is proposed for the powdery mildew that serves as host of C. lygodesmiae. Y1 - 2009 ER -
