Weir et al.Notes: First described from cucumber, this fungus is widelyregarded as a synonym of C. <strong>or</strong>biculare in the plant pathologyliterature (e.g. Snowdon 1991, da Silva et al. 2011).<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. cuscutae” (Zhang1985).Notes: A strain identified by this name was developed as amycoherbicide against dodder (Cuscuta chinensis in China (Zhang1985). This strain referred to as “Lu Bao No.1” is apparentlyincluded in the study of Guerber et al. (2003) as strain 783 andbelongs to the C. acutatum <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong>. Other strains fromdodder in the USA included in the same study were revealed to beC. fi<strong>or</strong>iniae, while a strain from Dominica was found to represent anew <strong>species</strong>, both belonging to the C. acutatum <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong>as well (Damm et al. 2012, this issue).<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides var. gomphrenae Perera,Revista Fac. Agron. Univ. Nac. La Plata 41: 12. 1965.Notes: Originally described from Gomphrena globosa, the name hasnot been used since it was described and its genetic relationshipto and within the C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong> is unknown.<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides var. hederae Pass., AttiReale Accad. Italia, Rendiconti., Serie 4, 6: 469. 1889.Notes: The <strong>or</strong>iginal description of this Hedera-inhabiting <strong>species</strong>,with fusif<strong>or</strong>m, straight to curved conidia suggests that it is asynonym of the Hedera pathogen C. trichellum.<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides f. heveae (Petch) Saccas,Agron. Trop. (Nogent-sur-Marne) 14: 430. 1959.Basionym: <strong>Colletotrichum</strong> heveae Petch, Ann. Roy. Bot. Gard.Peradeniya 3(1): 8. 1906.Notes: Originally described from the leaves of seedlings of Heveabrasiliensis from Sri Lanka, this fungus was described with verybroad conidia, 18–24 × 7.5–8 µm. Carpenter & Stevenson (1954)considered this, and several other <strong>Colletotrichum</strong>, Gloeosp<strong>or</strong>iumand Glomerella <strong>species</strong> described from rubber, to be synonyms ofC. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides. The genetic relationship of these <strong>species</strong> toand within the C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong> is unknown. Seealso notes in Damm et al. (2012b, this issue) under <strong>Colletotrichum</strong>annelatum.<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. hyperici” (Harris1993).Notes: This name was first used by Harris (1993) f<strong>or</strong> strains ofC. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides pathogenic to Hypericum perf<strong>or</strong>atum. Earlierstudies by Hildebrand & Jensen (1991) had found the Hypericumpathogen to be pathogenic also on several other plants. Thegenetic relationship of the Hypericum pathogen to and within theC. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong> is unknown. Note that the exholotypeculture of G. cingulata var. migrans, a variety here placedin synonymy with C. kahawae subsp. ciggaro, was also isolatedfrom Hypericum.<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. jussiaeae” (Boyetteet al. 1979).Notes: Strains identified as C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. jussiaeae” arehighly pathogenic, specialised pathogens of Jussiaea decurrens(Boyette et al. 1979). The genetic relationship of this taxon to andwithin the C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong>, <strong>or</strong> to <strong>Colletotrichum</strong>jussiaeae Earle, is unknown. Isolates pathogenic to Jussiaea havea similar conidial germination self-inhibit<strong>or</strong> profile to another isolateidentified as C. fragariae (Tsurushima et al. 1995). The authenticisolate of C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. jussiaeae” deposited as ATCC52634, is not included in this study.<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. malvae” (Makowski& M<strong>or</strong>tensen 1989).Notes: Strains identified as C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. malvae” wereregistered as a bioherbicide against round leafed mallow in Canada(Makowski & M<strong>or</strong>tensen 1989). The fungus was subsequentlyrecognised as belonging to the C. <strong>or</strong>biculare <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong>(Bailey et al. 1996).<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. manihotis”(Chevaugeon 1956).Notes: See <strong>Colletotrichum</strong> manihotis.<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides f. melongenae Fournet,Ann. Mus. Civico St<strong>or</strong>ia Nat. Genova 5: 13. 1973.Notes: In addition to C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides f. melongenae, the namesC. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. melongenae”, C. melongenae Av.-Saccá 1917, and C. melongenae Lobik 1928 have been used t<strong>or</strong>efer to fungi associated with anthracnose diseases of Solanummelongena (e.g. Sherf & McNab 1986, Kaan 1973). Other namesused f<strong>or</strong> isolates from the same host have included Gloeosp<strong>or</strong>iummelongenae Ellis & Halst. 1891 and G. melongenae Sacc. 1916.The genetic relationships of these eggplant-associated taxa to andwithin the C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong> remain unknown.Solanum melongena associated <strong>species</strong> are known also from theC. boninense <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong> (Damm et al. 2012b, this issue).<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. miconiae” (Killg<strong>or</strong>eet al. 1999).Notes: Killg<strong>or</strong>e et al. (1999) rep<strong>or</strong>ted that the isolates theyrecognised as C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides “f. sp. miconiae” were highlyspecialised pathogens of Miconia calvescens, unable to infectthe closely related Clidemia hirta. The <strong>or</strong>iginal voucher culturesare no longer available (pers. comm., Robert Barreto). Recentlycollected isolates from Miconia from the type locality in Brazil haveproved to be genetically diverse across the C. gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides<strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong>, with isolates in both the Kahawae and Musaeclades (unpubl. data). F<strong>or</strong> now the genetic position of this pathogenremains unresolved.<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> gloeosp<strong>or</strong>ioides var. minus Simmonds,Queensland J. Agric. Anim. Sci. 25: 178A. 1968.Notes: See <strong>Colletotrichum</strong> queenslandicum.154
