Abstract

Three species of Mycosphaerella were found to be associated with two distinct types of lesion on juvenile leaves of Eucalyptus globulus. M. cryptica caused smaller circular lesions, but on mature leaves of many other eucalypt species it caused large blighting lesions. M. nubilosa has been found only on large, blighting lesions on juvenile leaves of E. globulus and three other species in the eucalypt subgenus Symphyomyrtus. A saprophytic species, which is described here as Mycosphaerella parva sp.nov., was commonly found on lesions in association with M. nubilosa.
