Species of fungus

Neocamarosporium betae is a plant pathogen infecting Beta vulgaris (beet) and causes Phoma leaf spot. It was originally published and described in 1877 as Pleospora betae before being resolved as Neocamarosporium betae (Berl.) Ariyaw. & K.D. Hyde in 2015.[2][3] It also causes leaf spot on Spinach plants.[4]
