Notes – Doliomyces was initially placed in Amphisphaeriaceae (Kirk et al. 2008) but due to the lack of sequence data or cultures, this placement was considered uncertain. Senanayake et al. (2015) listed Doliomyces in Amphisphaeriales, genera incertae sedis. However, Wijayawardene et al. (2016b) classified this genus under Bartaliniaceae (now Sporocadaceae), based on its morphology. In this study we tentatively place Doliomyces in Sporocadaceae. Species of Doliomyces are characterized by cylindrical to navicular, fusiform, 3–5-septate, conidia with dark brown median cells, bearing a single, unbranched, basal appendage and several branched, apical appendages (Nag Raj 1993, Wijayawardene et al. 2016b).
Type species: Doliomyces senegalensis (Speg.) Steyaert.
Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Doliomyces.
