Colletotrichum lindemuthianum es un hongo fitopatógeno responsable de la antracnosis en el frijol común (Phaseolus vulgaris), causando lesiones oscuras y hundidas en vainas, tallos y hojas. Se distribuye mundialmente donde se cultivan frijoles, prosperando en condiciones frescas y húmedas. Este patógeno causa pérdidas agrícolas significativas y ha sido objeto de amplios programas de mejoramiento vegetal para la resistencia.

<em>Colletotrichum trichellum</em> is a fungal species within the genus <em>Colletotrichum</em>, a group widely recognized for its roles as plant pathogens and endophytes across terrestrial ecosystems. This species has been documented in Europe, with records from Belgium, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, indicating a distribution across temperate regions of the continent. Like other members of its genus, <em>Colletotrichum trichellum</em> is associated with plant hosts, where it may act as a pathogen causing lesions and tissue decay, or as a latent endophyte. Its conservation status has not been formally assessed by major evaluation bodies, and population data remain limited. As a fungal organism, it acquires nutrients through interaction with plant tissue rather than through active predation or foraging. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Research into the host range, infection mechanisms, and ecological impact of <em>Colletotrichum trichellum</em> continues to contribute to the broader understanding of Colletotrichum species diversity in Europe.
