Type species – Aquaticheirospora lignicola Kodsueb & W.H. Ho, Bot. J. Linn. Soc. 155(2): 286 (2007).

Notes – Aquaticheirospora was collected from freshwater habitat. The genus is characterized by euseptate conidia with divergent arms, which are vertically inserted in different planes on a basal cell (Kodsueb et al. 2007). This genus can be distinguished from other genera in Dictyosporiaceae in having synnematous conidiomata and conidia that are produced on conidiogenous cells borne at the apices of synnemata.
