Abstract

Abstract A description is provided for Cucurbitaria laburni . Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Laburnum anagyroides, L. alpinum, Cytisus capitatus, C. pungens, C. radiatus . DISEASE: not researched, but its presence as a primary colonizer of recently dead bark suggests that it is most probably a weak pathogen affecting moribund twigs and branches, possibly following an endophytic phase. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Temperate Europe and North America. Recorded from the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, UK, Ukraine and USA (New York, Ohio). TRANSMISSION: not studied, but the ascospores must be air-dispersed and the conidia are probably transmitted primarily through water-splash.
