Phaeophleospora epicoccoides (Cooke & Massee) Crous, F.A. Ferreira & B. Sutton 1997

Description

Type: Foliicolous Fungi; Description: Conidiomata pycnidial, scattered, subepidermal, becoming partially erumpent, black, ostiolate, up to 0.15 mm in diameter; on angular to irregular (up to 7 mm wide), purplish spots, mainly on the lower surfaces of leaves; brown cirri of exuded conidia are often seen. Conidia cylindrical, 3–7-septate, 30–55 × 3–6 μm, brown, minutely roughened, apex paler in colour, obtuse, base subtruncate.

Distribution

Distribution: Northland, Auckland, Buller, South Canterbury.; 1st Record: Dick (1982: as Phaeoseptoria eucalypti).

Notes

Pathogenicity

Significance: Although Park et al. (2000) regarded this fungus as the cause of one of the most common and widespread leaf diseases of eucalypts, it is of little importance in New Zealand.; Host(s): Eucalyptus saligna.
