Two new species of the genus , and , were described using combined morphological and DNA sequence data. The DNA sequences of respective strains including nuclear ribosomal DNA genes (nuSSU, ITS, nuLSU) and fragments of three protein-coding genes (ACT1, BT2, TEF1) were sequenced and compared with those from closely-related species to genera and (Family Sympoventuriaceae, Order Venturiales). Morphologically, both species showed typical ampulliform conidiophores and conidiogenous cells, features not seen in other species of . The conidia of are fusiform and those of are Y or T shaped, similar to old members of a closely-related genus . The addition of these two new species provides a new perspective on the heterogeneity of .
