Disease survey was carried out for the first time in Egypt (1996- 2000) in five governorates in order to search for fungal diseases of 18 palm species, grown in nurseries and /or landscape. Data indicated that there are eight fungal diseases which varied in their importance. Damping- off, root and / or basal stem rot as well as leaf spots were the most serious and prevalent diseases in nursery. Pink rot ( Gliocladium vermoeseni), leaf spots caused by several fungal pathogens and black scorch ( Thielaviopsis paradoxa) were the major disease problems on landscape palms. Whereas, Fusarium wilt (F. oxysporum), inflorescence rot or Khamadj disease (Mauginiella scaettae) and Botryodiplodia rot (B. theobromae) were the minor diseases on landscape palms. According to the available literature, the recorded diseases are unknown fungal problems on ornamental palms in Egypt before our survey trials.
