Taxonomy
Stagonosporopsis
 

Stagonosporopsis curtisii, reassigned to Peyronellaea curtisii

 
 

Stagonosporopsis salicorniae

 
 

Stagonosporopsis equiseti

 
 

Stagonosporopsis aquilegiae

 
 

However Stagonosporopsis has recently undergone major reorganisation together with many other genera within the Pleosporales. Therefore, a number of species such as Stagonosporopsis curtisii have been redistributed. S. curtisii is now known as Peyronellaea curtisii.[2]
