(2007)", on page 512, in the discussion of Alternaria rhadina, it is stated "By serious error, cultures of a different isolate from the same specimen, EGS 90-1481, were deposited as ATCC 90612, CBS 595.93, and IMI 359649. These are an entirely different taxon than A. rhadina. A living culture of A. rhadina is not known to be available." This update is listed for your information.
