Notes – Pseudoveronaea was introduced by Li et al. (2012) to accommodate P. ellipsoidea and P. obclavata, which were isolated from fruit surfaces of Malus domestica. Pseudoveronaea is characterized by unbranched, septate conidiophores, terminal, subcylindrical conidiogenous cells forming a rachis with scars, and obclavate, 0–2-septate conidia with appendage at subobtuse apex and darkened at truncate base (Li et al. 2012). Sequence data are available for both species.

 

Type species: Pseudoveronaea obclavata Batzer & Crous, Persoonia 28: 119 (2012).

Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Pseudoveronaea.
