Notes – Valenzuela-Lopez et al. (2018) introduced Paracucurbitaria to accommodate P. corni and P. italica. These two species are phylogenetically monophyletic. However, P. corni differs by its ornamented conidiomata while P. italica has a glabrous conidiomata. See Valenzuela- Lopez et al. (2018) for further details.
