Abstract
Two new species of Tranzschelia (Pucciniales) are described from the Americas. Tranzschelia pseudofusca is a microcyclic species on Anemone spp. (Ranunculaceae) with North American distribution. T. mexicana on Prunus salicifolia (Rosaceae) is found in Colombia, Ecuador and Mexico. It is assumed that T. mexicana is a macrocyclic host-alternating species. T. thalictri, a holarctic microcyclic species, has variable morphology and probably is an aggregate of related species. Specimens are documented with scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) and light microscopy including a simple new technique to illuminate urediniospore germ pores. Results are discussed with respect to similar species, distribution and life-cycle characters. A key for American species on telial hosts is provided.
