Other Names Cercospora arachidicola Hori Mycosphaerella arachidis Deighton 2.5. Diagnostic Notes **Disease** Early leaf spot. Lesions subcircular, 1–10 mm diam., reddish brown on upper surface, often surrounded by a chlorotic halo which is more distinct on upper surface; spot distinctly brown on lower surface. Petioles and stems may be infected, and plants may defoliate. **Morphology** _Conidiophores_ mostly epiphyllous, 15–50 µm long, 3–6 µm thick, fasciculate, unbranched, 0–2-septate, pale golden brown, straight or flexuous, with thickened spore scars. _Conidia_ 35–110 × 4–5 µm, 1–12- septate, sometimes slightly constricted at septa, pale olivaceous, smooth, straight or curved, obclavate, apex subacute, basal cell tapered to the base, thickened spore scar at base. **Notes** Macroscopically early leaf spot differs from late leaf spot (_Passalora personata_) principally by the presence of a halo, and the spots are not as dark as those caused by late leaf spot. 2.6.
