Thielaviopsis sp. Anamorph Ceratocystis sp. is an important agricultural pathogen fungal genus. Cultural characteristics showed two different groups recorded as brown and black colonies on the surface of the artificial media. Conidial structures showed morphology typical of Thielaviopsis. DNA sequences were generated for Internal Transcribed Spacer regions (ITS1 and ITS2). Morphology and molecular analyses showed the causal agents of rotten Salak were Thielaviopsis paradoxa and T. ethacetica. The descriptions of the fungi were illustrated in this study.
