Drechslera triseptata, a new record for Iranian mycoflora

Quercus persica and Pistacia mutica are two known and prevalent forest trees of Baneh and Marivan from Kurdistan province (W Iran). Thirty-five fungal isolates were obtained from ۵۰ bark samples of Q. persica collected in Sept. and Mar. ۲۰۱۰–۱۱. The aim of this study was to identify fungi associated with oak trees of Kurdistan province. Based on morphological features and authentic keys (Ellis ۱۹۷۶, Sivanesan ۱۹۸۷), ۱۵ isolates were identified as Drechslera triseptata that is reported as a new taxon to the mycobiota of Iran.
