摘要

Flyspeck caused by Scleroramularia abundans and S. henanensis is reported on Actinidia sp. in New Zealand for the first time. Symptoms consisted of superficial specks on the surface of the fruit skin. The fungi were isolated and identified using ITS and Tef-1α sequencing. Modified Koch’s Postulates confirmed that these species were the cause of the observed symptoms. This is a new record of S. abundans and S. henanensis in New Zealand, and a new host association worldwide.
