This
second edition is the product of an international initiative to study the large
and diverse genus Mycosphaerella including its anamorphs. The author
travelled widely to examine the type specimens of the thousands of species
described in the genus Mycosphaerella and its earlier name Sphaerella.
Mycosphaerella and its anamorphs: 2. Conspectus of Mycosphaerella is
the result of his thorough studies.
In this conspectus, a revision of species described in Mycosphaerella and
Sphaerella is presented. Listed by epithet, each name is briefly reviewed
including: full citation, synonyms, the citation for the type specimen, and a
decision about the deposition of that taxon based on an examination of the type
specimen. The genus Stigmidium is expanded in this second edition to
encompass fungicolous species and internal parasites of algae, and includes the
genus Mycophycias. This book concludes with a host index based on the
plant genus and a key to genera and species “often confused with
Mycosphaerella” which will be especially useful to plant pathologists as
well as keys to the morphological species of Davidiella and
Mycosphaerella.
