This species appears to be very closely related to Sphaerophragmium 
acaciae (Cooke) P. Magn. The teleutospores are very few in number 
but they appear to be always borne in the same sorus with the uredospores.

leaves of Schefflera sp. 
The spores are produced mostly on the lower leaf surface but also 
occasionally on the upper surface. The leaf tissue is killed and becomes 
yellow over a spot 1 to 3 cm in diameter, or sometimes the entire leaf is 
killed. The spores are 3-celled, 25 to 35 g in diameter and about 35 g 
long. Each cell bears four spines; one at each outer angle. The spines 
are 5 to 8 m long and dichotomously forked at the tip with prongs 2 
to 3 g long. The position and size of the spines are very uniform. The 
general appearance of the spots is somewhat similar to those produced 
on Justicia gendarussa by Puccinia thwaitesii Berk.

January, 1916, on leaves of Mastixia philippinensis. 
This specimen is provisionally referred to Dothiopsis as it seems to 
agree best with the description of that genus. It is possibly the conidial 
stage of some dothideaceous fungus.
