Pests of this species

Neofusicoccum parvum causes a lethal dieback of Syzygium paniculatum in Florida
Syzygium paniculatum (Myrtaceae), a native of Australia, is an important plant in the South Florida ornamental trade where it is used in hedges and trimmed as topiaries. It was relatively free of diseases before Hurricane Wilma (2005), but has since been affected by a serious dieback disease, primarily in production nurseries. Symptoms include wilting and death of terminal and lateral branches, and extensive vascular discoloration. Neofusicoccum parvum has been reported as a pathogen on several species in the Myrtaceae, but Syzygium paniculatum is a new host record.
