Classification: Beltraniaceae, Amphisphaeriales, Xylariomycetidae, Sordariomycetes, Pezizomycotina, Ascomycota, Fungi

Notes– The genus was introduced by Varghese & Rao (1979b) to accommodate S.indicusand S.navicularis. It is characterised by unbranched or sparingly branched, pale brown conidiophores, sympodial and denticulate conidiogenous cells and catenate conidia without a transverse band, lacking setae and swollen separating cells (Seifert et al. 2011). Rajeshkumar et al. (2016a) placed Subramaniomyceswithin Beltraniaceae based on phylogenetic analysis of S.fusisaprophyticus. However, Crous et al. (2017a) introduced a new genus Pseudosubramaniomyces to accommodate S. fusisaprophyticus and it differs from by lacking lateral conidiogenous cells along the length of the conidiophore stipe, and tends to have pale brown conidiophores.

Type species: Pseudosubramaniomyces fusisaprophyticus (Matsush.) Crous, in Crous et al., Persoonia 39: 375 (2017).

Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Pseudosubramaniomyces.
