N2 - The current paper represents the seventh contribution in the Genera of Fungi series, linking type species of fungal genera to their morphology and DNA sequence data. This manuscript focuses on a genus of dematiaceous hyphomycetes, Hirudinaria. Two species of this genus are treated in this study. Hirudinaria mespili, the type species of the genus, as well as Hirudinaria macrocarpa, are epitypified and provided with DNA sequence data to resolve their phylogeny as members of Mycosphaerellaceae (Mycosphaerellales, Dothideomycetes).
