Notes – Cheewangkoon et al. (2009) introduced Pseudoramichloridium to accommodate the Type species P. henryi and P. brasilianum (previously identified as Ramichloridium brasilianum). Jiang et al. (2017) described a third species, P. xinjiangense, isolated from soil. Pseudoramichloridium is characterized by unbranched conidiophores, terminal or intercalary conidiogenous cells forming a rachis with polyblastic, protruding scars, and obovoid to fusiform, aseptate, subhyaline to pale brown conidia with truncate base and thickened hilum (Cheewangkoon et al. 2009, Jiang et al. 2017).

 

Type species: Pseudoramichloridium henryi Cheewangkoon & Crous, Persoonia 23: 75 (2009).

Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Pseudoramichloridium.
