Ceratobasidium ochroleucum is a species of fungus in the family Ceratobasidiaceae. Basidiocarps are effused and web-like and were originally described from Brazil, causing a thread blight of apple and quince trees.^[1] The fungus was subsequently reported as a leaf disease on orchard crops in North America,^[1] but since descriptions of Ceratobasidium orchroleucum vary considerably and no type specimen exists, its identity remains unclear.^[2] Roberts (1999) considered it a "nomen dubium".
