Abstract
A rust on Stereospermum suaveolens was placed in the genus Phakopsora by Mundkur (1943) who claimed that he had found the aecial stage which, until then, was unknown for the genus. A re-examination of the rust has now revealed that what he claimed to be aecia are merely the immature stages of the telia and that the rust itself does not fit into the genus Phakopsora. A new genus has been established to accommodate the rust and named Mehtamyces, for Dr. K. C. Mehta, a distinguished Indian Cereal Rust Pathologist.
