Anabahusakala was established by do Carmo et al. (2014) to accommodate the type species Anabahusakala amapensis based on morphological studies. Anabahusakala is characterized by differentiated robust dark brown conidiophores, macronematous, mononematous, branched, septate, pigmented and branch irregularly towards the apex; hyphae holothallic conidiogenous, pigmented; conidial secession schizolytic; thallicarthric conidia, catenulate, cylindrical, sub-oblong, Y-shaped to irregular, and pale brown to brown, septate, formed by disarticulation of the conidiogenous hyphae (do Carmo et al. 2014). No other species have been introduced to Anabahusakala, which remains monotypic. In addition, no sequences are available in this genus, and a fresh collection is needed.
Type species: Anabahusakala amapensis Carmo, J.S. Monteiro, Gusmão & R.F. Castañeda
