 Since this discovery was made, the original conserved generic concept of "Mycosphaerella" s. lat.has been replaced with the concept that the mycosphaerella-like morphology has evolved multiple times and that these taxa in fact cluster in diverse families such as the "Cladosporiaceae, Dissoconiaceae, Mycosphaerellaceae and Teratosphaeriaceae".As such, the name "Mycosphaerella" should be limited to species with "Ramularia" sexual forms, but the name "Ramularia" actually predates the name "Mycosphaerella", so the name "Ramularia" has preference over "Mycosphaerella", and will be placed on the list of protected names.
