NotesMagnaporthiopsis was introduced as a phialophora-like asexual genus. It was identified to Magnaporthaceae based on phylogenetic analyses of multi-genes (SSU, ITS, LSU, MCM7, rpb1, tef1) (Luo & Zhuang 2012). The sexual morph characters are globose ascomata with a cylindrical neck and black, clavate asci with a refractive ring and fusiform to fusoid, septate, hyaline or yellow brown ascospores (Luo & Zhuang 2012).
