Phyllactinia angulata is a plant pathogen infecting chestnut, beech, oak and elm trees in North America with powdery mildew. [3] Collections on elm were segregated into a new variety, Phyllactinia angulata var. ulmi.
Reports of this species infecting pistachio [4] are probably instead referrable to Phyllactinia pistaciae , described in 2003. [5]
