Notes

The identity of Sclerotinia fuckeliana, the ascogenous stage of Botrytis cinerea, has been well established (Gregory, 1949). Unfortunately under B. cinerea are placed an aggregation of forms occurring on a very wide range of hosts; some of these forms may ultimately be found to be referable to other species of Sclerotinia or related genera. Therefore the New Zealand records have been listed under Botrytis cinerea.
