Type speciesTowyspora aestuari Wanas., E.B.G. Jones & K.D. Hyde, Fungal Divers. 78: 35 (2016).

NotesTowyspora aestuari was collected from UK on Phragmites communis. The genus is monotypic and shares most similarities with Setoseptoria in having hyaline, subcylindrical conidiogenous cells and transversely euseptate, hyaline, smooth-walled, subcylindrical conidia, with one large central guttule per cell. Towyspora however, forms a remote clade from Setoseptoria (Li et al. 2016a).
