  • Text: "Notes: Crous et al. (2009a) proposed the new species Verrucisporota grevilleae but did not designate the type specimen at the time, making it an invalid name according to Art. 40.6 (Melbourne). Herewith we designate the original specimen as the holotype for Zasmidium grevilleae. Verrucisporota is currently considered a synonym of Zasmidium based on morphological and phylogenetical evidence (Braun et al. 2013)."
