Coniella hibisci is reported for the first time in Lao P.D.R. The pathogen was isolated from roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa var. sabdariffa) stem and leaf samples from a farm in Thateng district, Sekong province, and deposited with the International Collection of Microorganisms from Plants (ICMP). The identification of the pathogen was based on morphological features and the results of sequencing the ITS, LSU, and tef1 genetic loci. Pathogenicity tests on four-week-old roselle plants reproduced field symptoms, satisfying Koch's postulates.
