Ribes rubrum, Dronten © Arnold Grosscurt

notes

The species of the complex of P. caricina s.l. can be identified only when the host alternation is known. The pictures above therefore cannot be associated with certainty with P. caricina in the strict sense.

gall

aecia also on veins, petioles, green shoots and young fruits; peridium cupulate, white, margin revolute. Locally strong galling and discolouration.

The description above applies to caricina s.str. However, many authors maintain a much wider concept of the species. In that vision P.caricina s.l. alternates between Ribes and a variety of Carex species.

The following taxa described here are members of the complex of P. caricina s.l.: P. caricina, caricina var. ribis-ferrugineae, magnusii, pringsheimiana, ribesii-digitatae, ribesii-diversicoloris, ribesii-pendulae, ribis-nigri-lasiocarpae, ribis-nigri-paniculatae.
