Genus Pseudocoleodictyospora was named for its similarities with Coleodictyospora in dark sporodochia, dictyosporous, to bulbil-like, muriform, horizontal conidia produced on conidiogenous cell, but Pseudocoleodictyospora lacks a hyaline sheath. Due to the lack of sequence data for Coleodictyospora, no strain of Coleodictyospora was used in the phylogenetic analysis used for the introduction of this genus (Doilom et al. 2017). Morphology of type species see Doilom et al. (2017).
Type species: Pseudocoleodictyospora tectonae Doilom & K.D. Hyde.
Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Pseudocoleodictyospora.
