Abstract A description is provided for Phyllachora dalbergiae. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Known from Dalbergia ferruginea, D. latifolia, D. nitidula, D. sissoo, D. stipulacea and D. variabilis. DISEASE: Causes a leaf spot of Dalbergia species. No research into the epidemiology or virulence of this disease has been carried out, but as the host genus is prominent and widespread it seems unlikely that serious damage is caused. In cases where the fungus is well established on the host, however, significant retardation of the growth rate must result. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Africa: Tanzania, Zimbabwe. Asia: Burma, India, Philippines. South America: Brazil. TRANSMISSION: This has not been studied, but it almost certainly occurs through the air-borne dispersal of ascospores in wind currents, which then directly infect the host leaves.

Abstract A description is provided for Diaporthe manihotis. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOST: Manihot esculenta. DISEASE: Leaf spot of cassava (46, 64) or sometimes referred to as Phomopsis blight of tapioca (54, 2588). In the early stages of infection the visible symptoms are pale green, watersoaked, small round spots on young leaves and petioles which rapidly enlarge and turn brown. Severe attack leads to defoliation and infection spreading to the stem. Affected areas become shrivelled with numerous pycnidia embedded in the tissue. On severely infected stems the bark starts to peel off gradually leading to partial or total girdling. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Africa (Ethiopia, Nigeria); Asia (India); Central America and West Indies (S.E. Dominica); South America (Colombia). TRANSMISSION: Probably by watersplash-dispersed conidia.

Abstract A description is provided for Passalora bupleuri, a colonizer of living leaves, causing mild leaf spot symptoms and further leaf fading and drying, probably hastening leaf death. Some information on its habitat, dispersal and transmission, and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (South America (Chile), Asia (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, India (Orissa and West Bengal), Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia (Kamchatka oblast, Primorye krai) and Uzbekistan), Caribbean (Cuba) and Europe (Bulgaria, Estonia, Germany, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Russia (Belgorod oblast, Kabardino-Balkaria Republic, Leningradskaya oblast, Lipetsk oblast, Stavropol krai, Tver oblast, Voronezh oblast), Slovakia, Spain and Ukraine)) and hosts (including Bupleurum tenuissimum).

Abstract A description is provided for Cercospora pappaea. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Caricapappaea (pawpaw). DISEASE: Leaf spot of pawpaw. Leaf spots are circular at first, but become irregular with age, 3-10 mm diam., pale brown on the upper surface, indistinct on the lower. The fungus may also cause small shallow black dots on the fruit; these lesions may enlarge up to 3 mm, but do not cause fruit decay (Weber 1973). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Africa: Mauritius, Malawi, Sudan Uganda, Asia: Burma, India Indonesia, Nepal; Australasia and Oceania: Papua New Guinea, Tonga; South America: Venezuela.

Heavy Infestation

Abstract A description is provided for Phyllachora contigua. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Recorded from Millettia caudata, M. pallens and M.? stapfiana. DISEASE: Causes a leaf spot of Millettia species. Nothing is known of the development of the disease, but it is likely to cause little damage to the host in common with other Phyllachora species. However, heavy infestation would undoubtedly significantly affect the growth rate of the tree. Individual infections are probably confined to the leaves in which they occur. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Africa: Ethiopia, Ghana, Guinea, Sierra Leone. Asia: India. TRANSMISSION: This has not been studied, but probably occurs through air dispersal of ascospores and direct infection of leaves, the ascospores germinating to produce appressoria and infection pegs.
