Zusammenfassung:A new, monotypic genus, Portalia is described for Cintractia uljanishcheviana, a smut fungus collected for the first time in Europe (Spain), in addition to its type locality in Kazakhstan. The phylogenetic relationship of the new genus to other smut genera, such as Cintractia, Dermatosorus, Gymnocintractia, Leucocintractia, Parvulago, Pilocintractia and Stegocintractia is discussed, based on ribosomal DNA LSU sequence analyses. A detailed description, including spore germination, obtained for the first time, as well as illustrations are given for Portalia uljanishcheviana.
