The first find in Sweden of the smut Urocystis junci on Juncus balticus was made along the Bothnian sea coast. Of 18 surveyed populations of J. balticus along a 100 km coastal stretch, the smut fungus U. junci was found in ten. The distribution and the rarity of U. junci on J. balticus is discussed.
