Description
Microthyriaceae are tiny fungi that grow on plant leaves and stems. They form dark, shield-like structures on the plant surface. These fungi are widespread in tropical and subtropical regions. Many species in this group are plant pathogens, causing leaf spots and other minor damage to their host plants. Their small size makes them challenging to study without a microscope.
