Abstract
As a later homonym of Mycosphaerella aggregata (Schweinitz) Stevenson the name Mycosphaerelia aggregata Carnegie & Keane is illegitimate. Th e name Mycosphaerella gregaria is proposed as a replacement with simil ar etymology. The original description is revised following further co llections and includes new hosts and cultural characteristics. Origina lly thought to be a saprophyte, this species may be a primary pathogen of leaves of Eucalyptus.
