A high mortality of coconut palms was observed in the coastal areas of Equatorial Guinea. Molecular analyses on 16S rRNA and secA genes detected ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma palmicola’ subgroup 16SrXXII‐A. Strict monitoring and surveillance procedures for early detection of the pathogen are strongly recommended to reduce its impact and further spread in the
