In production of crops of agriculture and horticulture or the like, damage caused by diseases is still large, and, due to factors such as occurrence of resistant diseases to existing drugs, development of new agrohorticultural fungicides is desired.

The present invention provides an agrohorticultural fungicide and a method of use thereof of, an active ingredient thereof being a compound represented by the general formula (I) or salts thereof:

##STR00001##

{wherein X.sup.1, X.sup.2, X.sup.3 and X.sup.4 denote a hydrogen atom or the like, A, B, Y, denote a single bond or carbonyl group or the like, Q denotes a (C.sub.1-C.sub.6)alkyl group or hetero ring or the like, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 denote a hydrogen atom or (C.sub.1-C.sub.6)alkyl group or the like.}.

Disclosed are compounds of Formula 1, including all geometric and stereoisomers, N-oxides, and salts thereof,
