Abstract A description is provided for Leptosphaeria rubicunda. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. DISEASE: Although the fungus appears on dry stems of its hosts, which are mainly herbaceous, it is not known to cause any pathological symptoms. HOSTS: Apiaceae indet., Dipsacus sylvestris, Leonurus, Lythrum salicaria and Sambucus nigra. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: NORTH AMERICA: Canada (Ontario), USA (New York). EUROPE: Czech Republic, Germany, Great Britain, Hungary, Italy. TRANSMISSION: Ascospores are dispersed by wind and rain-splash; the fungus presumably overwinters on dead host tissue and the ascospores are dispersed in the next favourable season.
