Abstract
Several cucurbitaceous plants are cultivated in South India as vegetables. Of late Cercospora leafspots of some of these hosts have been found to occur in severe forms, sometimes causing leaf blights. Investigations were undertaken to study the diseases in detail, and several cucurbitaceous plants were examined. Recently we (1960) reported a new species of Cercospora, C. annamalaiensis Rang. & Chandr. on Luffa acutangula Roxb. In this paper the systematic position of the fungi on seven hosts is reported.
