Description
This authoritative account, the first overview of the Australian taxa, documents 132 species of Septoria, its telemorph Mycosphaerella and six related genera. Eleven species are described as new to science, and 64 names are regarded as doubtful or are excluded from the Australian mycota. A comprehensive introduction to Septoria and its allies is followed by detailed descriptions and illustrations of each taxon.
Reviews
"This book is essential for anyone who may have to identify a species of Septoria no matter where in the world it may exist... Congratulations to Michael Priest for a very fine contribution to mycology as well as to the government of Australia for recognizing the importance of knowing the biodiversity of fungi in their country." -- Amy Y. Rossman, Inoculum
"At last mycologists and plant pathologists have a monograph of Septoria... The monography will be very welcome on mycology bookshelves all over the world." -- Ian Pascoe, Australian Systematic Botany Society Newsletter
