Phylogenetically, Aulographina eucalypti (CPC 12986) clusters within the family, and its sequence data was obtained by Cheewangkoon et al. (2012) without morphological diagnosis. Cheewangkoon et al. (2012) doubted the sequence data of the type A. pinorum (CBS 174.90, 302.71) is correct, as the strain produced an asexual fungus Catenulostroma abietis in culture and the two species are phylogenetically distinct. However, we retain Aulographina until more evidence is available. See description and illustration in Cheewangkoon et al. (2012) and Hongsanan et al. (2014b).
Type species: Aulographina pinorum (Desm.) Arx & E. Müll., Sydowia 14(1-6): 332 (1960).
Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Aulographina.
