Notes – Hadrospora was introduced to accommodate two species, originally described as Trematosphaeria species by Boise (1989). A second species, Hadrospora clarkii is listed as Trematosphaeria clarkii in Index Fungorum (2020). Hardrospora is a poorly known genus which lacks sequence data in GenBank and Phookamsak et al. (2014c) tentatively placed this genus in Trematosphaeriaceae based it on its morphological characters. Hadrospora species need recollecting and sequencing to determine their taxonomical position.
Type species: Hadrospora fallax (Mouton) Boise, Mem. N. Y. bot. Gdn 49: 310 (1989).
≡ Trematosphaeria fallax Mouton, Bull. Soc. R. Bot. Belg. 25(no. 1): 155 (1886).
Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Hadrospora.
