W. C.  aHelminthosporiella stilbacea associated with African oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) in Brazil.h[electronic resource]  c2019  aAfrican oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is considered the most productive oleaginous crop due to its high oil production per hectare. In April 2015, E. guineensis leaves showing elliptical necrotic spots with yellowish halo were observed in a commercial plantation in Moju, Pará state, Brazil. A synematous fungus was consistently observed associated with the necrotic spots. The aim of this study was to identify this fungus associated with E. guineensis in Brazil. Based on morphology and DNA sequence data of the internal transcribed spacer rDNA, the fungus was identified as Helminthosporiella stilbacea. Helmintosporiella stilbacea has been reported associated with leaf spots on E. guineensis in Africa, Ghana, Sudan and Zambia. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of H. stilbacea associated with E. guineensis in Brazil.  aArecaceae  aMassarinaceae  aPleosporales  aDendê  aElaeis Guineensis  aMoju1 aBOARI, A. de J.1 aCUSTÓDIO, F.
