Notes – Alfariacladiellais characterised by sporodochial, cupulate conidiomata surrounded by hyaline and septate marginal hyphae (Hernández-Restrepo et al. 2016b). Conidiophores are hyaline, smooth, septate and monoverticillate or not. Conidiogenous cells are phialidic. Conidia are single, hyaline, smooth-walled, guttulate and fusiform. The genus is similar to Alfaria, but differs in lacking brown setae surrounding the conidiomata, and having fusiform conidia with apical mucoid caps (Hernández-Restrepo et al. 2016c).
Type species: Alfariacladiella spartii Crous & R.K. Schumach., in Hernandez-Restrepo et al., Sydowia 68: 202 (2016).
Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Alfariacladiella.
