Notes: Pseudodactylaria was introduced by Crous et al. (2017) for two dactylaria-like species, P. hyalotunicata and P. xanthorrhoeae, in the subclass Sordariomycetidae and class Sordariomycetes. The genus is characterised by distinct, single, hyaline, unbranched and septate conidiophores, terminal, integrated, polyblastic, denticulate conidiogenous cells and solitary, fusoid-ellipsoid, hyaline conidia (Lin et al. 2018).
