Species of rust fungi of the genus    Milesina    (  Pucciniastraceae  ,   Pucciniales  ) are distributed mainly in northern temperate regions. They host-alternate between needles of fir (   Abies    spp.) and fronds of ferns (species of   Polypodiales  ).    Milesina    species are distinguished based on host taxonomy and urediniospore morphology. In this study, 12 species of    Milesina    from Europe were revised. Specimens were examined by light and scanning electron microscopy for urediniospore morphology with a focus on visualising germ pores (number, size and position) and echinulation. In addition, barcode loci (ITS, nad6, 28S) were used for species delimitation and for molecular phylogenetic analyses. Barcodes of 72    Milesina    specimens were provided, including 11 of the 12 species.Whereas urediniospore morphology features were sufficient to distinguish all 12    Milesina    species except for 2 (   M.   blechni    and    M.   kriegeriana   ), ITS sequences separated only 4 of 11 species. Sequencing with 28S and nad6 did not improve species resolution. Phylogenetic analysis, however, revealed four phylogenetic groups within    Milesina    that also correlate with specific urediniospore characters (germ pore number and position and echinulation). These groups are proposed as new sections within    Milesina    (sections    Milesina   ,    Vogesiacae    M. Scholler &amp; Bubner,  sect. nov. ,    Scolopendriorum    M. Scholler &amp; Bubner,  sect. nov.  and    Carpaticae    M. Scholler &amp; Bubner,  sect. nov. ). In addition,    Milesina   woodwardiana    Buchheit &amp; M. Scholler,  sp. nov.  on    Woodwardia   radicans   , a member of the type section   Milesina  , is newly described. An identification key for European    Milesina    species, based on urediniospore features, is provided.
