Type speciesPlokamidomyces colensoi Bat., C.A.A. Costa & Cif., Atti Ist. bot. Univ. Lab. crittog. Pavia, sér. 5 15: 47 (1957).

Notes – The genus was introduced with the type species P. colensoi based on a possible conidial state of Trichopeltina asiatica described by Batista el al. (1957). Hughes (1965) noted that phialophores of Plokamidomyces differ from setae in Trichopeltina mainly in an apical whorl of phialides, which produce minute hyaline phialospores. Wijayawardene et al. (2017b) retained this genus in Euantennariaceae.
