Description.

see Yang et al. (2021).

Materials examined.

China, Anhui Province, Huangshan City, from diseased leaves of C. sinensis cv. Fenglixiang, 2 Jul 2019, Y. C. Wang, culture YCW 499 . Zhejiang Province, Hangzhou City, from diseased leaves of C. sinensis cv. Longjing 43, Jun 2014, Y. C. Wang, culture YCW 1118 .

Notes.

Remotididymella anemophila was clustered into a sister clade to R. bauhiniae (Fig. 4), characterised by shorter ascospores, longer asci and larger conidia. It was first isolated from canopy air of Ageratina adenophora (Spreng.) in China (Yang et al. 2021). In the present study, three strains were isolated from diseased tea plant leaves. This is the first report of R. anemophila causing leaf blight on C. sinensis .
