Current name: SEIMATOSPORIUM Corda, in Sturm, Deutschl. Fl., 3 Abt. (Pilze Deutschl.) 3(13): 79 (1837)
Notes: The genus Amphichaeta was regarded as a synonym of Seimatosporium by Shoemaker (1964).

(2008, 2013) did not list in Dictionary of Fungi and the list of without-prejudice list of generic names, respectively. Index Fungorum (Fungorum 2022) listed 17 species epithets, and one novel species has been reported from Pakistan. It is necessary to recollect these taxa and study to confirm its relationship with Seimatosporium.
Diplodiella (P. Karst.) Sacc., Syll. fung. (Abellini) 3: 375 (1884) nom. dub.
Notes: Kirk et al. (2008) regarded that this generic name is doubtful. Two novel species has been reported from Pakistan which need to be resolved.
