Species of fungus
Corticium penicillatum is a species of fungus in the class Agaricomycetes. It is a corticioid fungus and a plant pathogen, the causal agent of coconut thread blight, a leaf disease of coconut palms. The species was originally described from Papua New Guinea in 1925 and has since been reported from Vanuatu, Fiji, and the Solomon Islands.[1] Corticium penicillatum has never been redescribed or reviewed and is unlikely to be a species of Corticium in the modern sense.
