Apiospora Sacc., Atti Soc. Veneto-Trent. Sci. Nat., Padova, Sér. 4 4: 85 (1875).
Notes – Apiospora is characterized by densely arranged perithecia arranged in a longitudinal stroma, clavate to broadly cylindrical asci and apiospores in the sexual morph and Arthrinium-like asexual morph (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). Species of this genus commonly live as endophytes, epiphytes, saprobes on grass in Poaceae (Samarakoon et al. 2022). Apiospora and Arthrinium has no clear boundary as to the morphological characteristics. However, Apiospora and Arthrinium sensu stricto were recognized in Apiosporaceae as two independent lineages in this family (Pintos and Alvarado 2021).
