Colonies on OA flat with entire margin; surface buff, rosy buffto pale saffron, covered with sh<strong>or</strong>t white aerial mycelium, reversesame colours; growth rate 17.5–18.5 mm in 7 d (27.5–28.5 mm in10 d). Conidia in mass salmon.Material examined: Australia, Queensland, Brisbane, Eight Mile Plains, from fruitrot of Capsicum annuum, 14 Jul. 1955, J.H. Simmonds, (IMI 117622 holotype of C.brisbanense (also paratype of C. acutatum), <strong>CBS</strong> H-20801 isotype, culture ex-type<strong>CBS</strong> 292.67 = BRIP 4684).Notes: The type and only confirmed strain of C. brisbanense wascited as one of the paratype strains of C. acutatum by Simmonds(1968), and assigned to C. simmondsii by Shivas & Tan (2009).Conidia and appress<strong>or</strong>ia of C. brisbanense are larger overallthan those of C. simmondsii as accepted in this treatment. Thetwo <strong>species</strong> are easily separable using all sequence data exceptf<strong>or</strong> ITS, and most effectively with TUB2 and GAPDH sequences.There is only one bp difference in CHS-1 sequence between C.brisbanense and C. indonesiense. There is a further <strong>species</strong> inclade 2 associated with Capsicum annuum, C. scovillei, possiblya <strong>species</strong> endemic to Southeast Asia. <strong>Colletotrichum</strong> brisbanensecan be separated easily from C. scovillei based on appress<strong>or</strong>iummeasurements, as well as by most DNA data. See C. scovillei f<strong>or</strong>further inf<strong>or</strong>mation.A blastn search with the TUB2 sequence of strain <strong>CBS</strong> 292.67resulted in a 100 % match with GU183275, the sequence of thesame strain generated by Shivas & Tan (2009); next closest wasDQ454064 from isolate S6 from Fragaria in Thailand with 99 %identity (four differences; Sang et al. 2011). With the GAPDHsequence there was no match with m<strong>or</strong>e than 95 % identity. The ITSsequence of strain <strong>CBS</strong> 292.67 matched 100 % with GU183315, asequence of the same isolate generated by Shivas & Tan (2009).<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> chrysanthemi (H<strong>or</strong>i) Sawada, Rep.
