Severe leaf spot disease of Pomoideae, Rosaceae caused by a species of Entomosporium has recently been observed in Kyushu and the central to western parts of Honshu, Japan. Symptoms and signs on the evergreen and deciduous host species are described in detail. Morphologically, 25 Japanese collections occurring on 9 host species could not be divided into clearly separated groups. Germination of conidia and growth of mycelial colonies were studied under various conditions.
