The following fungi species have been assigned as both marine and terrestrial species. Is this posible? Claviceps purpurea Pleospora betae Pleospora herbarum Septoria petroselini Septoria stellariae Tympanis laricina

Claviceps purpurea is a terrestrial species causing 'ergot' disease to grasses and cultivated plant species. I think that could be possible to find it on grasses in transition environments between marine and terrestrial (coastal environments). Pleospora betae (anamorph Phoma betae) is also a terrestrial fungal species pathogenic mainly to sugar beet. Again, it is reported in the WoRMS list and even GBIF having a marine habitat based on the following citation: Liu J.Y. [Ruiyu] (ed.). (2008). Checklist of marine biota of China seas. China Science Press. 1267 pp. It is possible its presence in transition environments between marine and terrestrial (coastal environments) on wild plant species Pleospora herbarum (anamorph Stemphylium vesicarium) is a fungus that causes of purple spot on Asparagus. The same considerations as above. Furthermore Pleospora herbarum has been confused at one point with Pleospora gaudefroyi (Kohlmeyer J., 1962 Über Pleospora gaudefroyi Patouillard. Willdenowia 3:315-324), considered a marine species (coastal) found on Salicornia, a coastal Chenopodiaceae. Septoria petroselini is a fungal pathogen of parsley and affects, in general, the genera Conioselinum and Petroselinum (Farr D. F., Bills G. F., Chamuris G. P., Rossman A. Y. 1989. Fungi on plants and plant products in the United States. APS Press. The American Phytopathological Society. St. Paul, Minnesota. USA.). It can be possible that this fungus has been found from the above hosts in coastal environments and thus be considered a marine species. The genus Conioselinum is typically present in swamps, along rivers, lakes, then even estuaries. Septoria stellariae and Tympanis laricina can also be found in coastal environments. According to these considerations, and considering that coastal enviroments are part of the marine environments, these species can be considered both terrestrial and marine

"According to these considerations, and considering that coastal enviroments are part of the marine environments, these species can be considered both terrestrial and marine" No action needed for revising the EASIN Catalogue
