Phaeosphaeriopsis phacidiomorpha is not known to be present in New Zealand. One of the synonyms of this name, Glomerella phacidiomorpha, has been recorded as a pathogen of Phormium (Flax), however this usage was a misapplication of the name by Kinghorn (1936). ‘Glomerella phacidiomorpha sensu Kinghorn (1936)’ is now considered to be Colletotrichum phormii [BSW 2019]
