Phoma selaginellicola was detected on wild invasive plants of Selaginella kraussiana (African club moss). Identification was made based on colony characteristics, pycnidial and conidial morphology and comparison of ITS DNA sequences. This is the first record of the species for New Zealand and a new host species.
