Type speciesParabambusicola bambusina (S.C. Teng) Kaz. Tanaka & K. Hiray., Stud. Mycol. 82: 116 (2015).

Massarina bambusina Teng, Sinensia, Shanghai 7: 512 (1936).

Notes – Tanaka et al. (2015) introduced Parabambusicola to accommodate massarina-like taxa that have hemisphaerical to depressed globose ascomata, broadly cylindrical asci, and fusiform, multi-septate ascospores. This genus has two species with P. bambusina, formerly classified in Massarina (Teng 1936, Aptroot 1998, Tanaka & Harada 2003b) and P. thysanolaenae (Phookamsak et al. 2019).
