Abstract A description is provided for Lophodermium conigenum. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Mainly Diploxylon (two-three needle) pines, including Pinus brutia, P. densiflora, P. montana, P. mugo, P. nigra, P. resinosa, P. sylvestris, P. tabuliformis, P. contorta, P. halepensis, P. pinea and P. radiata. Has also been recorded from Haploxylon (five needle) pines. DISEASE: Needle cast of pines. Lophodermium conigenum inhabits green needles on the tree, producing no symptoms. When a branch bearing such needles is killed by an agent other than the fungus, L. conigenum fruits seprophytically on the needles. It causes no significant damage to the tree. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread in Europe, a couple of records from the USA (east coast and Michigan) where it is apparently not common, New Zealand. TRANSMISSION: By air-borne ascospores in wet weather/humid conditions.

Abstract A description is provided for Lophodermium pinastri. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Pinus spp. ; a very wide range of Diploxylon (two-three needle) pines; has been recorded occasionally on Haploxylon (five needle) pines. DISEASE: Needle cast of pines. Lophodermium pinastri inhabits green needles on the tree producing no symptoms. When the needles senesce and fall to the litter, the fungus fruits. It causes no significant damage to the tree. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread in Europe, western USA including Washington, Australia, New Zealand, Japan. TRANSMISSION: By air-borne ascospores in wet weather/humid conditions.

HOSTS: Pinus tarda, P. patula, P. palustris, P. kesiya, P. elliottii, P. caribaea. DISEASE: Needle cast of pines. Lophodermium australe appears to be completely saprophytic, inhabiting needles in dhe litter or attached to branches killed by some agent other than the fungus.

Abstract A description is provided for Lophodermium seditiosum. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Pinus sylvestris, P. resinosa, P. nigra, P. montezumae, P. halepensis, P. virginiana. Probably on other pines also. DISEASE: Needle cast of pines. Lophodermium seditiosum is the serious Lophodermium pathogen; it infects young needles and kills them, causing discoloration and often 'drooping' symptoms. When attack is severe the seedling or young tree may die. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread in Europe, USA (notably Christmas tree growing areas including Michigan, Oregon and Washington). TRANSMISSION: By air-borne ascospores in wet weather/humid conditions.

Abstract A description is provided for Lophodermium nitens. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Haploxylon (five needle) pines, including Pinus cembra, P. monticola, P. strobus and P. lambertiana. DISEASE: Needle cast of pines. Darker (1932) considered this species to fruit only on older needles. It is, therefore, unlikely to be of commercial importance. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: North America (USA, Canada); Japan; possible records from Europe. TRANSMISSION: By air-borne ascospores in wet weather/humid conditions.

Abstract A description is provided for Endothia gyrosa. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Castanea spp., Eucalyptus diversicolor, Fagus americana, F. sylvatica, Ilex opaca, Liquidambar formosana, L. styraciflua, Quercus spp., Ulmus americana, Vitis spp. DISEASE: Sunken cankers occur at wounds or branch stubs on stems, branches and roots. Affected areas are typically covered with orange stromata. Girdling results in death of the distal portions of the tree and sprouting below the canker is common. Cracking of the bark, purple stain and resin flow are pronounced on Liquidambar. Van Arsdel (1972) refers to the disease as hobnail canker on oak. Early descriptions suggest that the organism is a weak wound pathogen. More recent reports show that the disease is serious on species of Quercus (Stipes & Phipps, 1971; Van Arsdel, 1972) and L. formosana in the USA (Snow et al., 1974). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION Throughout the eastern USA and in Texas, Kansas and California. Reported from Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, China, Ceylon, Philippines, New Zealand. TRANSMISSION: Pycnidiospores are presumably transmitted by insects and splashing rain; pruning tools would likely spread this spore stage because infection occurs in wounds. Ascospores are assumed to be windborne.
