Abstract

Elsinoe eucalypti Hansford, Macrohilum eucalypti Swart, Microsphaeropsis conielloides Sutton, Pachysacca pusilla Swart, Seimatosporium cylindrosporum Swart, S. falcatum (Sutton) Shoemaker, S. fusisporum Swart & Griffiths, and Vermisporium obtusum Swart & Williamson are reported on Eucalyptus spp. leaves for the first time in New Zealand. Coccomyces globosus Johnston, which is known on three indigenous hosts, has been found on four species of Eucalyptus. Species of Hendersonia previously reported on Eucalyptus in New Zealand are now placed in the genus Sonderhenia. Mycosphaerella swartii Park & Keane, the teleomorph of Sonderhenia eucalyptorum (Hansford) Swart & J. Walker, is reported for the first time. New host records are listed for six other fungi on Eucalyptus.
