De Carvalho and Mendes (1952) are often quoted to indicate the presence of P. angolensis in Mozambique. However, in their publication these authors referred only to the presence of this pathogen in the province of Bié, Angola, without making any reference to Mozambique. No direct references of the presence of P. angolensis in Mozambique were found in the literature. Moreover, Pretorious and Holtz (2008) did not find symptoms of PFLS during a survey conducted in 2003 in several citrus areas in Mozambique. Therefore, the status of P. angolensis in Mozambique needs to be reassessed.
