CUP-CH 1896
Coccostroma arundinariae
Japanese mycologist Kanesuke Hara first named this fungus for its host, a bamboo in the genus Arundinaria. Later, S.C. Teng assigned this species to the fungal genus Coccostromopsis—and still later, to Coccostroma—reflecting a better understanding of the relationships among fungi.
