Biology:Amphilogia

From HandWiki

Amphilogia is a genus of fungi within the family Cryphonectriaceae. It was established in 2005.[1] The fungi cause orange cankers on branches of Elaeocarpus trees in Sri Lanka and New Zealand.[1][2][3] While the type species of this genus (Amphilogia gyrosa) has been confused with the type species of Endothia (Endothia gyrosa), these fungi are distinct and both are accepted names.[1][3][4]

The name, amphilogia, is derived from the Greek amphi (both sides) + logo (discussion), referring to taxonomic disputes around the genus.[1]
