Venturia carpophila E.E. Fisher 1961

Type: Foliicolous Fungi; Description: Ascomata stromatic, perithecial, scattered, immersed at first but erumpent later, globose to subglobose, olive brown, 0.1–0.2 mm in diameter, ostiolate; on both sides of fallen leaves. Asci saccate-cylindrical, 48–56 × 5–6 μm. Ascospores somewhat clavate, 1-septate, 12–16 × 3–5 μm, smooth, yellowish green. Conidia bluntly fusiform, 0-septate, 12–18 × 4–5 μm, smooth, yellowish brown.
Distribution: Auckland, Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Wellington, Gisborne, Nelson, Central Otago.; 1st Record: Kirk (1904: as Cladosporium carpophilum).
Significance: On living leaves, shoots, and fruit, only the Fusicladium state is found. Only fruit infection (causing the disease known as ‘scab’) is of economic significance. Infected fruit has sharply defined, dark green to black spots, 2–3 mm in diameter, often with distortion and cracking. When no control measures are taken, scab may cause serious loss (Atkinson 1971). The teleomorph is produced on fallen leaves during the winter.; Host(s): Prunus armeniaca, P. cerasifera, P. ×domestica, P. dulcis, P. mume, P. persica, P. persica var. nucipersica, P. salicina.
