Disputed determination[edit]

Hello Rbrausse, I think the determination of this species is not good. According to Kalman Vanky, the world specialist of Smut Fungi, Urocystis colchici is only found on Colchicum. There are only two smut species on Allium cepa: Ustilago ceparum and Urocystis magica. The latter is synonymized with the variety Urocystis colchici var. cepulae (Index fungorum). Perhaps this is where the error lies? Kind regards. --Abalg (talk) 08:15, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. I choose the synonymized one : Urocystis colchici var. cepulae Cooke ----Abalg (talk) 21:50, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
