The monotypic genus Dematiohelicomyces was introduced for a known species Chlamydotubeufia helicospora Boonmee et al. based on morphology and phylogeny (Lu et al. 2018b). Dematiohelicomyces is similar to Helicomyces Link by short conidiophores and helicoid conidia with a spathulate basal end cell, but differs in having brown conidiophores (Lu et al. 2018b). Dematiohelicomyces helicosporus is exclusively recorded from freshwater habitats (Hyde et al. 2016b; Lu et al. 2018b).
Type species: Dematiohelicomyces helicosporus (Boonmee, Y.Z. Lu & K.D. Hyde) Y.Z. Lu.
Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Dematiohelicomyces.
