In order to investigate the etiological characteristics of pepper anthracnose fungus infected with Colletotrichum dematium. Isolation % of the fungus was 55.3% from the seed sample of Jewon and 0.3% from that of Eumsungkun [Korea R.], according to seed health blotter method. Although the acervulus was similar to the known two Colletotrichum species, C. acutatum and C. gloeosporiodes, setae was not only straightly extended above the acervulus but also shaped as falcate conidia ranging 12-31.2 x 2.4-4.8 micron m.
