Raffaelea
''Raffaelea'' is a genus of ambrosia fungi in the family Ophiostomataceae. It was circumscribed by mycologists Josef Adolph von Arx and Grégoire L. Hennebert in 1965 with '' Raffaelea ambrosiae'' as the type species. The genus is named in honor of Italian botanist Raffaele Ciferri. Laurel wilt is a disease of redbay (''Persea borbonia'') caused by '' Raffaelea lauricola''. This fungus, harbored in the mycangium of the redbay ambrosia beetle ''Xyleborus glabratus'', is in the form of a budding yeast in the mycangium and a filamentous fungus in galleries of the beetle. Several species also resident in the beetle were described as new to science in 2010: '' R. ellipticospora'', '' R. fusca'', '' R. subalba'', and '' R. subfusca''.

Laurel Wilt
Laurel wilt, also called laurel wilt disease, is a vascular disease that is caused by the fungus ''Raffaelea lauricola'', which is transmitted by the invasive redbay ambrosia beetle, ''Xyleborus glabratus''. The disease affects and kills members of the laurel family. The avocado is perhaps the most commercially valuable plant affected by laurel wilt. Symptoms Symptoms of laurel wilt include wilted stems and leaves and dark streaking in the wood. Laurel wilt can spread in at least two ways: one is via the beetle's natural reproduction and migration. A second way is through the sale and transport of beetle-infested wood, a result of redbay's use as firewood and for outdoor grilling. Life cycle ''R. lauricola'' is symbiotic with ''X. glabratus''. It reproduces clonally and is vertically transmitted originally evolving from a sexual population of mutualists. This combination of traits and ancestral traits is common, however Dreaden et al 2019 finds ''R. lauricola'' to be ...
