New Blight of Cupressaceae in Austria and Croatia

In 2003, foliar blight was reported from several large trees of Chamaecyparis lawsoniana growing in an Austrian park. First symptoms had already been observed in 2000, and in 2003 up to 2/3 of tree height was blighted. In May 2003, samples were taken and fungus fructificating abundantly on dead leaves and twigs was identified as Stigmina thujina. In July 2007, similar symptoms were observed in a nursery in Croatia on large Chamaecyparis lawsoniana trees and Stigmina thujina was again the main fungal species involved.
