Notes – Idriellomyces introduced by Crous et al. (2018d) is characterized by branched conidiophores arranged as thick, erect synnemata, subcylindrical conidiogenous cells tapering towards the apex to a rachis and fusoid, hyaline, aseptate conidia. It is similar to Idriella in Microdochiaceae but distinct in having pigmented conidiophores often in aggregated synnemata and in lacking chlamydospores (Crous et al. 2018d). The type species was found on leaves of Eucalyptus obliqua from Australia (Crous et al. 2018d).
