This family was introduced by Hyde et al. (2017) to accommodate Fuscostagonospora as the type genus. Fuscostagonosporaceae members are characterized by immersed, globose to subglobose ascomata, branched trabeculate pseudoparaphyses and narrowly fusiform, hyaline ascospores with a sheath (Hyde et al. 2017). In this study, we followed Hyde et al. (2020) as the latest treatment for this family.

Type genus: Fuscostagonospora Kaz. Tanaka & K. Hiray., in Tanaka, Hirayama, Yonezawa, Sato, Toriyabe, Kudo, Hashimoto, Matsumura, Harada, Kurihara, Shirouzu & Hosoya, Stud. Mycol. 82: 124 (2015).
