Descriptions
Septoria exotica Speg. 1880
Type: Foliicolous Fungi; Description: Conidiomata pycnidial, scattered, subepidermal, immersed, globose to subglobose, pale brown to dark brown, 0.1 mm in diameter; on circular to ellipsoid, small (1–3 mm in diameter) leaf spots with a pale grey necrotic centre and a sharply defined brown margin. Conidia fusiform, 0–3-septate, 15–35 × 1 μm, smooth, hyaline.
Distribution: Auckland, Bay of Plenty, Taranaki, Stewart Island.; 1st Record: Dingley (1969).
Notes: This fungus, found on lesions on leaves of Hebe spp., has been repeatedly confused with Phaeophleospora atkinsonii (see p. 68), also found on lesions on leaves of Hebe spp. See Laundon (1978b) for accounts of the confusion between the two species, and their distinguishing characteristics.
Significance: A common leaf spot of no significance.; Host(s): Hebe ×andersonii, H. ×franciscana, H. obtusata, H. speciosa.
