Plectosphaerella cucumerina
A study of Plectosphaerella cucumerina by Uecker (1993), designated isolate CBS 101607 (= ATCC 96328 = G.J.S. 84-531), recovered from Nicotiana tabacum in New Zealand as the neotype for both Plectosphaerella cucumeris and Venturia cucumerina (Rossman et al. 1999). However, this was rejected by Girald & Crous 2019 who regard the 'neotype' isolate as P. plurivora, and designated a new neotype for V. cucumerina as CBS 131739, from Cucumis melon, grown in Italy.
