Vestergrenia is a genus of fungi belonging to the family Dothideaceae.[2] The type species is Vestergrenia nervisequia.[1]

The genus was circumscribed by Heinrich Simon Ludwig Friedrich Felix Rehm in Hedwigia vol.40 on page 100 in 1901.

The genus name of Vestergrenia is in honour of Jacob Tycho Conrad Vestergren (1875–1930), who was a Swedish teacher and botanist (Mycology). He taught chemistry und botany at various schools and university institutions in Stockholm.[3]

Affects

[edit | edit source]

It has been found on the dead stems of Cryptostegia grandiflora in Kannad, India. It causes roundish, dark brown spots about 1mm wide. [4] In New Zealand, Vestergrenia leucopogonis Hansf. 1957 was found on Cyathodes fasciculata and Leucopogon fasciculatus.[5]

Distribution

[edit | edit source]

The genus has almost cosmopolitan distribution,[2] for example species Vestergrenia multipunctata (G. Winter) Arx & E. Müll. (1954) is found in New Zealand,[6] with Vestergrenia leucopogonis Hansf. 1957.[7] While specimens of Vestergrenia nervisequia Rehm were found in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[8] Vestergrenia pandani P.B. Chavan & Hosag. (1984) has been recorded in India.[9]
