Polyopeus purpureus var. verus Horne

Brien (1934) described this fungus from apple fruit held in cold store in New Zealand. Ainsworth and Bisby (1961) stated that the genus Polyopeus Horne is synonymous with Phoma. Unfortunately no herbarium material was kept from Brien's studies. In recent researches on apple fruit rots (Brook 1960; Cooper and Padfield, 1965) it has not been recorded. It is suggested that the name in New Zealand could have been confused with the Phomopsis stage of Diaporthe perniciosa.
