Chronology of Phytoparasitic Fungi Introduced to Germany and Adjacent Countries

A chronologically arranged list of 59 taxa of phytoparasitic micromycetes, introduced to Germany after 1750, is presented. Another list enumerates 15 fungal taxa which have been introduced to other parts of Europe but may be expected in Germany, too. Most of the enumerated newcomers are members of the orders Pucciniales and Erysiphales. The new terms archaeomycete, neomycete, and ephemeromycete are proposed.
