Notes:
1 The name ¤ Microsphaera Yoshimi et al. 1996 is illegitimate because of precedence of the fungal genus Microsphaera (Wallr.) Léveillé 1851 [Principle 2, Rule 51b(4)]. Consequently, a new genus designation Nakamurella has been proposed by Tao et al. 2004.
2 In the etymology of the genus Nakamurella, provided by Tao et al. 2004, the first name of Prof. Nakamura is erroneously cited as Kazonuri.
