Importance and distribution

Aulographina comprises two species causing target spot on Eucalyptus (Myrtaceae) and an epiphyte on Pinus (Pinaceae). Aulographina has been reported from continents where eucalypts are cultivated such as Africa (South Africa), Asia (Vietnam), Europe (France, United Kingdom), Oceania (Australia, New Zealand) and South America (Brazil).
