Coniothecium chomatosporum sensu auct. NZ

Cunningham (1925a) associated this fungus with "blister disease" of fruit and of laterals of apple and pear trees. It is now known that this fungus is not responsible for this condition but that it is present as a saprophyte in dead bark tissue. The cause of the condition in trees that exhibit this characteristic splitting is still unknown.
