Associated with leaf spot. Sexual morph: Unknown. Asexual morph: Conidiomata pycnidial, immersed, globose to subglobose, unilocular, sometimes slightly papillate, thin-walled, wall composed by 1-3 cells with pale brown to brown textura angularis. Conidiophores reduced to conidiogenous cells. Conidiogenous cells ampulliform to doliiform, hyaline, smooth, covering the entire inside wall, enteroblastic, phialidic with minute collarette. Conidia hyaline, guttulate, allantoid to elongate-ellipsoidal, aseptate or septate (adapted from Videira et al. 2017).

 

 Type species: Allantophomoides carotae S.L. Wei & T.Y. Zhang

 

Notes: Allantophomoides is characterised by immersed, globose to subglobose conidiomata, ampulliform to doliiform, hyaline conidiogenous cell, hyaline, guttulate, allantoid to elongate-ellipsoidal conidia. Allantophomoides resembles septoria-like species in having allantoid to elongate-ellipsoidal conidia. The placement of Allantophomoides in Mycosphaerellaceae is doubtful and needs to be recollected.
