Notes – The monotypic genus, Chaetorostrum was introduced by Zelski et al. (2011b) from woody debris in a semi-aquatic, intermittent stream in Peru. It is the first member of the Annulatascaceae that produces its asexual morph (taeniolella-like) in culture (Zelski et al. 2011b). There is no sequence data for this species and the family placement needs confirmation.

Type species: Chaetorostrum quincemilense Zelski, Raja, A.N. Mill. & Shearer [as ‘quincemilensis’], Mycosphere 2(5): 595 (2011).

Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Chaetorostrum.
