Abstract

An asexual morph of a powdery mildew was found on Buddleja asiatica (Scrophulariaceae) in Nepal. The morphological traits of this powdery mildew strongly resemble those of Phyllactinia species (including Ovulariopsis) belonging to a phylogenetically basal group closely related to Leveillula species, but phylogenetic examinations and analyses clearly showed that this fungus pertains to Leveillula. Within the latter genus, it seems to be allied to L. duriaei, but clearly differs from this species in having conidiophores arising from superficial hyphae and narrower conidia with different length/width ratios. Therefore, the powdery mildew on B. asiatica is described as Leveillula buddlejae sp. nov.
