      Yes, but it’s a paid service, and each request involves filling a 4 page form. The frdbi is a lot easier :)

      OK! I have managed to get some individual records from SEWBReC for free!

      Also worth noting that David Harries with his Pembrokeshire Fungus Recording Network also has regular articles on rusts in his quarterly Newsletter. Adam has apparently re-jigged the website? so I don’t know the correct link at present. Can you help me out please Adam?

          For anyone who has this book, the information available here might be of some use: –

          NB: As mentioned in the text, viewing the documents directly does not show them very well. They are far better downloaded, saved, and opened in Word or Excel respectively.

          The three dark blue arrows at the right hand side of the page are the download links for the articles in question. ;)

          Hi Mike,

          Thanks for that. I will wait for my copy (ordered!) –

          maybe getting out of my depth with Rusts but Nigel is giving me excellent backup!

          One Rust on Kew’s ‘Lost and Found List’ is Chrysomayxa pyrolata on Pyrola spp. mainly P.rotundifolia ssp. maritima. It has recently been re-found on dunes near Southport. I’ve been looking on sand dunes in Glamorgan VC41 but no success so far. Only record at the moment in Wales is on dunes on Anglesey. However P.rotifundulia ssp. maritima is also found inland in VC41 on old colliery spoil heaps so if you have suitable locations with Pyrola maybe worth looking for?

            Hi Mark,

            Not wishing to take this thread away from Rusts Literature, but yes, the Chrysomyxa pyrolata (great find!), was found by MykoGolfer – one of the NWFG members, (who has recently registered as a member, here with UK Fungi).

            See the first item at top of page here: – http://fungus.org.uk/nwfg/newslinks.htm” class=”bbcode_url”>http://fungus.org.uk/nwfg/newslinks.htm

            Maybe if Tony sees this, he might start a topic and post some more photos etc. here on the rusts and smuts board? ;)

            Regards,

            Mike.

            Well done MycoGolfer!!! 10 stars from me and hopefully from Kew!! I have 3 sites locally to me with Pyrola rotundifolia ssp. maritima but yet to find the Rust but your find will keep me going – it’s not a lost cause!

            Hi Mark/Mike,

            Yes – well done to MykoGolfer. Should we all take up golf in an attempt to be successful in finding this elusive rust. Mark – I’ve been to all the opencast sites here and looked at the Pyrola but no luck even though there are carpets of the stuff indicating that the plants weren’t infected when they were brought in.

            I’m sure the rust is at Oxwich or Whitford dunes near you as these have classic slacks within the complex.

            Hi Nigel,

            I spent 5.5 hours out on Whiteford dunes with Martyn et al – plenty of Pyrola but no Rust!

            That was my introduction to searching for the Rust and it hasn’t put me off!!

              Hi all,

              For anyone who isn’t already aware, “Roesten van Nederland” (Dutch Rust Fungi) by A.J. Termorshuizen and C.A. Swertz: –

              DRF.jpg

              [attachment=0]DRF.jpg[/attachment]
              400+ pages, written in both Dutch and English. (Well worth buying the printed book for anyone with an interest in rusts!!!).

              is now available as a completely free PDF download from: –

              https://bodemplant.nl/en/roesten/?fbclid=IwAR1tEz2PEZ3_TP_DVWwsbhHki8d-C47O7YhMN7z-nfBLaW9pOfJ_8dvf7rg

              NB at well over 700MB this is quite a big download – so could take a while depending on your internet speed etc.

              Note also, that it doesn’t download (for me anyway) using Internet Explorer as browser, but it downloads without problem using Google Chrome.

              Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in Rusts, as most (if not all) rusts found in Britain are included in the book).

              Regards,

              Mike.

              No problem with Firefox.

              I have downloaded it and run it through ABBYY OCR software. This has reduced it from 700Mb to around 15.3 Mb without any loss of quality. I did the same earlier this week with another huge file which had been placed online.

              So if anyone is interested they can PM me and let me have their email address (always treated with confidence) I’ll put it on Dropbox and give you a link. It’s a lot easier to use than that 700Mb behemoth 😆

              Cheers

              Chris
