Abstract
This paper provides recommendations of one name for use among pleomorphic genera in
Dothideomycetes
by the Working Group on
Dothideomycetes
established under the auspices of the International Commission on the Taxonomy of Fungi (ICTF). A number of these generic names are proposed for protection because they do not have priority and/or the generic name selected for use is asexually typified. These include:
Acrogenospora
over
Farlowiella; Alternaria
over
Allewia, Lewia
, and
Crivellia; Botryosphaeria
over
Fusicoccum; Camarosporula
over
Anthracostroma
;
Capnodium
over
Polychaeton; Cladosporium
over
Davidiella; Corynespora
over
Corynesporasca
;
Curvularia
over
Pseudocochliobolus; Elsinoë
over
Sphaceloma; Excipulariopsis
over
Kentingia; Exosporiella
over
Anomalemma; Exserohilum
over
Setosphaeria
;
Gemmamyces
over
Megaloseptoria
;
Kellermania
over
Planistromella; Kirschsteiniothelia
over
Dendryphiopsis; Lecanosticta
over
Eruptio; Paranectriella
over
Araneomyces; Phaeosphaeria
over
Phaeoseptoria; Phyllosticta
over
Guignardia; Podonectria
over
Tetracrium; Polythrincium
over
Cymadothea; Prosthemium
over
Pleomassaria; Ramularia
over
Mycosphaerella; Sphaerellopsis
over
Eudarluca; Sphaeropsis
over
Phaeobotryosphaeria; Stemphylium
over
Pleospora; Teratosphaeria
over
Kirramyces
and
Colletogloeopsis; Tetraploa
over
Tetraplosphaeria; Venturia
over
Fusicladium
and
Pollaccia;
and
Zeloasperisporium
over
Neomicrothyrium.
