Abstract

Under natural conditions a fungus, identified as Cladosporium uredinicola, was observed living as a parasite over rust lesions produced by Puccinia puta on leaves of Ipomoea fistulosa, a shrub commonly found in the State of Pernambuco, northeast of Brazil. Although recorded as a parasite of different rust species, C. uredinicola had never been mentioned as a hyperparasite of Puccinia puta. This information might be important for studies on the biocontrol of rust species.
