Killed branches die and dry up without casting their needles.^ Ph. pithya Sacc. causes a disease similar to the preceding on the Douglas fir {Pscudotsuga Donrjlasii). The pycnidia of the fungus are found on dead constricted parts of twigs, and they, as well as other symptoms of the disease, closely resemble those of Phoma ahietina.

Hartig.) ^ Buhm (Zeifsch. f. Forst- u.
