In all 12 genera of rust fungi with 35 species belonging to 7 families were collected and identified. Among these, one genus <em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Aecidium </em>Pers. ex. Pers. was an anamorphic and 11 were holomorphic. Most of the rust fungi were collected from herbaceous and shrubby hosts, while few were found to be pathogens of tree species. <em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Populus nigra </em>var<em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">. italica</em>, and an extensive cultivated tree in this area was found to be a new host for the rust fungus <em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Melampsora ciliata </em>Barclay. The study suggest further exploration of the area for rust disease in order to assess the diversity of these fungi particularly in ferns, grasses, sedges and trees including cultivated ones. </span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: ";Book Antiqua";,";serif";;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in; line-height: normal;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: ";Book Antiqua";,";serif";;">Key words: </span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: ";Book Antiqua";,";serif";;">Diversity, Taxonomic Description, Rust Fungi, Central Himalaya<em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> </em></span></p><h1 style="text-justify: inter-ideograph; margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: 110%; font-family: ";Book Antiqua";,";serif";; letter-spacing: -0.3pt; font-variant: normal! important; mso-fareast-language: EN-SG; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-no-proof: no; mso-ansi-language: EN-SG;" lang="EN-SG">Anwesha Singh and Uma Tiwari Palni.
