Re: Yucca Leaf-spot (Cercospora concentrica Cooke & Ellis 1877 )

Can anybody point me in the right direction to find the current name for one of the Yucca Leaf-spot fungi in the NBN Dictionary.  The name I have is (Cercospora concentrica, Cooke & Ellis 1877).  This name is NOT in the Dictionary and I have been unable to track down its current name - synonyms suggested do not appear to be in the Dictionary either.

Help - please.

Cheers.

Steve

Re: Yucca Leaf-spot (Cercospora concentrica Cooke & Ellis 1877 )

It seems to be: Mycosphaerella deightonii M. Morelet, Bull. Soc. Sci. nat. Arch. Toulon et du Var 205: 9 (1973)

Synonymy:
Cercospora concentrica Cooke & Ellis, Grevillea 5(no. 35): 90 (1877)
Cercostigmina concentrica (Cooke & Ellis) U. Braun, Cryptog. bot. 4(1): 108 (1993)
Pseudocercospora concentrica (Cooke & Ellis) U. Braun & Crous, Mycol. Progr. 1(1): 22 (2002)
Stigmina concentrica (Cooke & Ellis) Deighton, Trans. Br. mycol. Soc. 61(1): 107 (1973)

(taken from SpeciesFungorum - here: http://www.speciesfungorum.org/Names/Sy … dID=318139

This species doesn't exist in the database either - would you like me to add Cercospora concentrica Cooke & Ellis and Mycosphaerella deightonii?

Best wishes,
Chris R.

Yes please Chris - adding both would be good and I will be able to get the records in at last.

Many thanks.
