Pine pitch canker
The pathogenic fungus pine pitch canker is native to the southeastern United States, Mexico, and Haiti (USDA Forest Service, 1998). Introduced into California, it is killing the narrowly endemic Monterey (=Radiata) and Torrey pines (Pinus radiata and P. torreyana). The fungus might also cause serious damage to "[a]ll economically important native pine species" in California (USDA Forest Service, 1998).
