Descriptions
[Notes from Kew Type specimen, PRJ 2010] Kew images. Following examination of the type specimen, Aptroot (2006) noted "This is a Phaeosphaeria, with ascospores 3-septate, fusiform, pale brown, 35-40 x 5-7 um". A drawing on the packet of the type clearly shows 1-septate ascospores typical of Mycosphaerella. Examination of Luzula leaves from PDD specimens collected for other fungi from Campbell Island (the type locality) and southern New Zealand showed that several different Mycosphaerella spp. are common on this substrate. A detailed taxonomic study of Mycosphaerella on New Zealand monocotyledons is needed to match any of these species with S. depressa.
