Importance and distribution
Septorioides strobi causes dieback of Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus) (Wyka and Broders 2016). Septorioides comprises two species known on Pinus species (Pinaceae) in Asia (Japan, Korea) and The United States (Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont). Kaneko et al. (1989) isolated S. pini-thunbergii from blighted needles of Pinus thunbergii in Asia (Japan). Yoo and Eom (2012) reported S. pini-thunbergii as endophyte from needles of P. densiflora in Asia (Korea).
