Bluebell Rust - Uromyces muscari

Bluebell Rust (Uromyces muscari) affects various Bluebell species and causes yellowed areas on the leaves filled with dark brown/black telia.   There is no host-plant alternation, and only telia are known.

Note that Bluebell Rust is given the scientific name Uromyces hyacinthi in other parts of Europe, but this is currently treated as a synonym of U. muscari in the UK.
