During the surveys conducted in Haryana, a leaf spot disease creating epiphytotics was observed in 1990 on horse purslane at Kurukshetra. Infected leaves had dark-brown, round to irregular, necrotic lesions with maroon margins. The fungus was identified as Gibbago trianthemae Simmons, a phaeodictyoconidial hyphomycete. Its pathogenicity was confirmed, both in vitro and in vivo. This is the first report of occurrence of G. trianthemae on horse purslane in India.
