Stagonosporopsis curtisii, reassigned to Peyronellaea curtisii
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.
