Abstract:
The present paper deals with the description and illustrations of the two undescribed species of Corynespora Gussow viz.Corynespora calotropidis Haldar sp.nov. and Corynespora jatrophae Haldar sp.nov. growingon the living leaves of Calotropis gigantea (Asclepiadaceae) and Jatropha curcus (Euphorbiaceae), collected from Murshidabad district, West Bengal,India.Morphotaxonomic identity of the species ispresented here along with the microphotograph and visible symptoms on host plants consulting with the current literature.
Keywords: Anamorphic fungi, Morphotaxonomy, Foliicolous, Corynespora
