Thangavel, R.; Ho, W.; Harvey, I.; Ashcroft, T.; McLellen, D.; Alexander, B.Circular leaf spot of persimmon (Diospyros kaki) caused by Mycosphaerella nawae in New Zealand127Proceedings, 19th Australasian Plant Pathology Conference, Auckland, 2013

Discosia aquatica Fautrey 1893

Discosia sp. was isolated from several leaf spots and it is not clear how this fungus contributed to the disease symptoms. A black spot on Japanese persimmon caused by Adisciso kaki is genetically close to D. aquatica, but morphologically distinct. This is the first report of D. aquatica in NZ. It is unknown how and when the fungus arrived here.
