namely Hemerocallis fulva L. and Pancratium verecundum Ant. belong to Liliaceae.

dematium (Pers. Ex Fr.) and Glomerella montana (Sacc.)v Arx & E. Muller. Six
species of fungi, namely Alternaria alternata (Fries) Keissler, Colletotrichum
orbiculare (Berk & Mont.) Arex., Curvularia clavata Jain, Fusarium solani (Mort.)
Sacc., Lasiodiplodia theobromae (Pat.) Griffon and Maubol and Macrophomina
