A REVISED LIST OF DISEASES OF ORNAMENTAL PLANTS RECORDED IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA Compiled from Department of Agriculture Records by OLGA M. GOSS, B.Sc. (Hons.), Plant Pathologist THIS list of ornamental diseases constitutes a revision of portion of the census published by Carne (1925) and added to by the same author in 1927. It contains also records of diseases identified in the period between these earlier publications and June 30, 1961. Parts of the disease record referring to vegetables, cereals, grasses and pasture legumes, native plants, weeds, field and fibre crops and fruit have already been published (Chambers 1959, 1960, 1961, MacNish 1963, Doepel 1964). The list is arranged alphabetically according to the botanical names of the host plants. In general, the viral, bacterial, fungal and nematodal diseases and physiological disorders of each host are listed in that order. The locality and date of the first record in each instance is also given wherever possible. A list of common names of host plants has been appended to facilitate reference.
