Salvia leaf parasite

A tiny fungus shaped like globose black grains, only 0.05 to 0.15 mm in diameter, sprouting on the leaves of Salvia jordanii, colloquially known as rosemary, causing a marked yellowing.
Hyphae of the peridoid wall have an angular texture.
Conidia are cylindrical, with rounded ends, mostly with three septa, constricted within them, with brown intracellular pigment and abundant lipid droplets inside, measuring in water:
(14.7) 15.1 - 19 (20) × (6.9) 7.4 - 9.5 (9.7) µm
Q = (1.6) 1.8 - 2.4 (2.5) ; N = 30
Me = 17.4 × 8.3 µm; Qe = 2.1
I admit I'm not sure where the wind is blowing this time. The closest thing I know about rosemary leaves would be Alternaria alternata, but the microscopy doesn't match up at all.
Any feedback from you would be welcome.
Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards.

Re : Salvia leaf parasite
Hi Josep, take a look at Trimmatostroma salicis, found on many plants inc. Salix mostly. Also on Rosemary. Macro and conidia similar. regards

Re : Salvia leaf parasite
I would look in the direction of Camarosporium. Trimmatostroma salicis looks different in my experience.
Kind regards Mathias

Re : Salvia leaf parasite
Thank you both very much. Considering the information I've been able to find, the Camarosporium option seems to be a good one.
Best regards.
