This study was conducted to identify the Colletotrichum species causing anthracnose disease of strawberry in Balgladesh andto evaluate in vitro activity of commercial fungicides it. Based on morphological and cultural characteristics, all 22 isolateswere identified as Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. They developed white or glittery colonies with grey to dark grey reversecolony colors and they produced cylindrical conidia. The efficacy of five commercial fungicides, Bavistin DF, Dithane M-45, Sulcox 50 WP, Corzim 50 WP and Rovral 50 WP, were tested against the fungus. Bavistin inhibited radial growth completelyand was followed in efficacy by Dithane M-45. In Bavistin DF treated media, the fungus did not produce conidia. The percent inhibition of radial growth of the fungus was increased with the increasing concentrations of fungicide.
