Pucciniosiraceae

The Pucciniosiraceae are a family of rust fungi in the order Pucciniales.

[1] The family contains 10 genera and 57 species.

[2] In 2018, they were placed within the Uredinales order (which was a previous name for the Pucciniales).

[3][4] They are 'endocyclic rusts', species with endocyclic life cycles and having reduced autoecious life cycles (they complete their life cycle on a single host species), in which the aeciospores function as teliospores.
