Nodulisporium cecidiogenes is a species of fungus that has been found in St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and other parts of north-western Russia. It is typically associated with coniferous trees, particularly spruce and pine, where it can cause disease in the form of needle rust or canker. The fungus produces yellow to orange-colored spores and has been isolated from various substrates, including soil, decaying wood, and plant debris. In north-western Russia, Nodulisporium cecidiogenes has been reported to be a common component of fungal communities in coniferous forests, with some studies suggesting it may play a role in the decomposition of organic matter and nutrient cycling.
