Gibberella macrolopha (Syd.) Dingley 1952

Type: Caulicolous Fungi; Description: Ascomata stromatic, perithecial, aggregated in clusters, globose to oval, black, 0.2–0.3 mm in diameter, ostiolate, immersed in a dark, erumpent, pulvinate stroma 5–10 mm long; on cankers on living branches. Asci clavate, 84–120 × 16–20 1m. Ascospores oval to broadly elliptical, 1–3-septate, 24–33 × 8–11 8m, smooth, hyaline or light brown. Macroconidia cylindrical, 1–5-septate, 32–80 × 5–8 5m, smooth, hyaline, with sharply-curved ends. Microconidia oval, 0-septate, 2–4 × 1–2 1m, smooth, hyaline.
Distribution: Auckland, Coromandel, Taranaki, Taupo, Wellington, Nelson.; 1st Record: Sydow (1924: as Botryosphaeria macrolopha).
Significance: The presence of this fungus on cankers on living branches suggests that it is pathogenic.; Host(s): Coprosma foetidissima, C. grandifolia, C. robusta, C. tenuifolia.
Perithecia copiose (usque 100 vel ultra) in stromate corticali caespitose collecta et acervulos 2-8 mm longos et 2-5 mm latos haud raro confluentes tuberculiformes formantia, densissime stipata, obovato-turbinata, atra, levia, minutissime papillata, tandem collabascentia, 300-400 µ diam., e cellulis coerulescentibus vel opace coeruleis 10-15 µ diam. contexta; asci cylindraei vel cylindraceo-clavati, breviter stipitati, 90-120 x 14--18 µ, spurie paraphysati, octospori; sporae oblique monostichae usque distichae, oblongae vel oblongo-fusoideae, utrinque rotundatae, hyalinae, 3-septatae, ad septa non vel rarius lenissime constrictae, guttulatae, 28-34 x 9-12 µ, rectae vel leniter inaequilaterales.
Eine habituell sehr auffällige, groe Tuberkeln bildende Art. Manche Rasen sind teilweise mit einer weilich-rötlichen Schicht überzogen; es handelt sich hier um eine Tuberculariacee, aller Wahrscheinlichkeit nach um die zu. dem Schlauchpilz gehörige Konidiengeneration. Diese scheint jedoch noch nicht völlig entwickelt zu sein, da die Konidien sehr verschieden gro sind. Sie sind meist spindelförmig, 1-zellig, hyalin, 8-11 x 2-3 µ, doch habe ich auch einzelne bis 16 µ lange Konidien gesehen.
Wenn ich den vorliegenden Pilz als Botryosphaeria bezeichne, so nehme ich hier diese Gattung im Sinne von Weese (s. Ber. Deutsch. hot. Ges. XXXVII, 1919, p. 83 ff.), wozu Gibberella Sacc. als Synonym gestellt werden mu.
Hab. in ramis Coprosmae robustae, York Bay, Wellington, 28.3.1923, leg. E. H. Atkinson (no. 940).
