Type species – Strigopodia piceae Bat., in Batista et al., Anais Soc. Biol. Pernambuco 15(2): 440 (1957).

Notes – The sexual genus Strigopodia was established and included in Coccodiniaceae by Barr (1987a). Lumbsch & Huhndorf (2010) transferred the genus to Euantennariaceae based on its morphology. Sivanesan (1984) concluded that Antennatula is the asexual morph of Strigopodia. Chomnunti et al. (2014) restudied a herbarium specimen from the USA and reported that the morphology of Strigopodia is similar to Euantennaria. However, the general status of Stridopodia is retained in Euantennariaceae as no culture and sequence is available to confirm these relationships.
