Monilinia padi

An old description found by Stewart

From Mycologia 5(2): 51 (1913) as Oospora hinhartiana

Effused, thin, grey-white, spreading along petioles and veins of leaves, mycelium scanty, septate, hyaline; sporophores short
simple or branched, with chains of spores; spores globose, sub globose or ellipsoid 10-12 x 12-28

Wonderful

But

sadly the writer forgot

the

Heavenly Scent

Stewart has since completed more detailed research on this species.

There appears to be no doubt that Monilinia padi is a good name. It is given as the preferred name for the species on Species Fungorum and all references on the genus seem to include it.
There are records from the USA (It is described in Seaver, The North American Cup-fungi (Inoperculates, which references the original description under that name by Honey, American Journal of Botany
23: 105 (1936)) : 52 (1951) as Monilinia padi)
and mainland Europe, but it is not on the NBN Atlas and I can't find any reference to it having been seen here.
It seems surprising that it hasn't been recorded here and I wonder if perhaps it has been lost due to a rather confusing choice of nomenclature.
Saccardo described this fungus on Prunus padus using the name Monilia linhartiana. (Saccardo, Sylloge fungorum omnium hucusque cognitorum
4: 33 (1886)
Later Dennis proposed the new name of Monilinia linhartiana f(Monilinia linhartiana on Cydonia in Mycological Papers
62: 141 (1914)or the similar fungus on Quince,
acknowledging that linhartiana had already been used by Saccardo for a different fungus,
This seems to me to be an unnecessary source for potential confusion and I wondered if there might be records of M. hinhartiana on Prunus padus.
But there are no records of M. linhartiana on the NBN Atlas at all, so perhaps it is just a neglected genus.
and
in a note to L
I think that I have exhausted all of the references available to me, so I would love to know what you think.
No records of M. linhartiana on the NBN Atlas at all, so perhaps it is just a neglected genus.

She was underground for 37 minutes before she returned to the entrance.

LynfordSalbilabris190425-3

She then spent another 30 + minutes in and out of the nest entrance never fully revealing herself.

The wind, a flash and our presence all contributing to her remaining there perhaps.

In the immediate vicinity < 30cm two other females were busy clearing out nests.

Bluebell Rust (Uromyces hyacinthi) produces only one type of spore - (teliospores (that have a stalk)

so this rust completes its life cycle on one host. The spores are capable of over wintering, so can produce fresh infections the following year.

Whiteknights Biodiversity 2010

Some rusts can produce as many as five different types of spores in a complex life cycle growing on different hosts at different times of the year.
