Type speciesSeriascoma didymosporum Phookamsak, D.Q. Dai & K.D. Hyde, Fungal Divers. 82(1): 30 (2016).

Notes – This monotypic genus was established to accommodate a fungus forming elongated, multiloculate, coriaceous ascostromata, embedded beneath a clypeus, erumpent and splitting the host epidemis parallel with the venation to form a slit like opening. Seriascoma differs from other genera in Occultibambusaceae as its ascostromata are under a clypeus, and it is also distinguished from Occultibambusa and Versicolorisporium in its asexual morph (Hatakeyama et al. 2008, Dai et al. 2017). Morphology can be seen in Dai et al. (2017).
