Abstract A description is provided for Cercospora gossypina. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Gossypium arboreum, G. barbadense, G. herbaceum, G. hirsutum, G. indicum. DISEASE: Leaf spot of cotton. Causes circular to irregular spots, 0.5-15 mm diam., pale brown or grey with a dark brown or purple border, often zonate. Plants of all ages may be infected. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Africa: most countries; Asia: Bangladesh, Burma, India, Pakistan, The Yemen, Australasia: Australia (Queensland); North America: West Indies (Puerto Rico, Trinidad); South America: Peru, Uruguay.

Abstract A description is provided for Entyloma calendulae f. dahliae. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Dahlia variabilis, D. coccinia, D. pinnata; cultivated dahlia. DISEASE: Leaf spot of Dahlia. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widely distributed in Europe including Finland and Sweden; Africa; North America (USA); Central and South America and West Indies (Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, El Salvador, Guatemala, Jamaica, Venezuela); Asia (Burma, India, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Malaysia, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Papua New Guinea); Australia and New Zealand.
