  • Text: "The genus Stigmina (based on S. platani) is a synonym of Pseudocercospora (Braun & Crous 2006, Crous et al. 2006b, 2013). However, previously several cercosporoid taxa were indiscriminently placed in Stigmina, because they had rough, brown, percurrently proliferating conidiogenous cells, and distoor muriformly septate conidia. These taxa are clearly not congeneric with Pseudocercospora s. str., but in the absence of molecular data, it is also not possible to determine their generic affinities. For the present, they are retained in “Stigmina”."
