This study aims to report the endophytic fungal pathogen Monochaetia monochaeta (Desmazières) Allesch on Quercus robur Linnaeus (English oak) for the first time from Anatolia (Türkiye). The microscopic and macroscopic properties of the fungus, the symptoms it creates in the host plant, and the distribution of the disease in the world are explained. With the new host record revealed by this research, a contribution was made to the Turkish Mycoflora and the scientific world. Additionally, it has been emphasized that fungal diseases can cause serious yield loss and, therefore, significant economic losses in plants worldwide and that much more research should be done on these disease agents and host plants based on systematic and biological control studies.
