Abstract :
The Comoclathris genus belongs to the Pleosporaceae family (Dothideomycetes, Pezizomycotina, Ascomycota), with most species being saprophytes. In the present study, Comoclathris typhicola was isolated from Typha latifolia (Typhaceae, Poales) exhibiting leaf spot symptoms. The species was described using PDA, MEA, and OA culture media, and its molecular identification was confirmed through sequencing of the large subunit RNA polymerase II (RPB2) gene. This is the first report of this species in Iran.
