The connection of this Carex rust with aecia on Urtica was first 
shown by Magnus in 1872 (Vehr. Bot. var. Prov. Brandb. 14: 11. 
1872). Many other European investigators have confirmed Magnus 
results (Klebahn, Die Wirtsw. Rostp. 293. 1904). 
In America Arthur has conducted numerous successful culture 
experiments with this species.(Bot. Gaz. 29: 270. 1900; 35: 16.

Mycol. 2: 223. 1910; 4:17. 1912). Kellerman has also conducted 
successful culture experiments (Jour. Myc. 9: 9. 1903). None of 
the culture work, however, has been conducted with Pacific coast 
material.
