Colletotrichum dematium (Pers.) Grove 1918

The fungus has been recorded as an anthracnose causing pathogen from numerous hosts (e.g. mulberry anthracnose). Disease symptoms are reported to range from fruit rot to shoot, leaf, and flower blight. The species is difficult to recognize based on morphological characteristics. The conidial sizes of the epitype (Damm et al. 2009) have been given as 20–23 × 3–4 μm.
