ABSTRACT: Reexamination of Ovulariopsis passiflorae, the causal agent of a powdery mildew on Passiflora rubra, revealed that the fungus has dimorphic conidia and conidiophores formed from the external mycelium, a combination of features typical of Streptopodium. An emended description of this species is provided and the new combination Streptopodium passiflorae is proposed.
