Notes – Anteaglonium was introduced as the type genus of Anteagloniaceae by Mugambi & Huhndorf (2009b). Later Flammeascoma was described based on multi-gene phylogeny and placed in Anteagloniaceae by Liu et al. 2015). The asexual morph of Anteaglonium produces pink pigments whereas in Flammeascoma the sexual morph produces orange pigments and has hyaline ascospores. Flammeascoma bambusae produces fusiform, hyaline, 1-septate ascospores (Liu et al. 2015), whereas F. lignicola has olivaceous-brown ascospores (Ariyawansa et al. 2015a).
Type species: Anteaglonium abbreviatum (Schwein.) Mugambi & Huhndorf.
