Summary:The tulip tree ($Liriodendron$ $chinense$) has been widely cultivated in Korea as a street or garden tree for its large flowers, which have a superficial resemblance to tulips. Occurrence of anthracnose disease on the leaves of tulip trees growing on the campus of Gyeongsang National University, Jinju, Korea, has been observed. Based on mycological characteristics, pathogenicity, and internal transcribed spacer sequence, the causal fungus was identified as $Colletotrichum$ $gloeosporioides$. This is the first report on anthracnose disease caused by $C.$ $gloeosporioides$ on tulip trees in Korea.
