Stagonosporopsis is a genus of ascomycote fungi, containing several pathogens to plants.

Some of these pathogens affect Hippeastrum (S. curtisii).

Taxonomy


However Stagonosporopsis has recently undergone major reorganisation together with many other genera within the Pleosporales. Therefore a number of species such as Stagonosporopsis curtisii have been redistributed. S. curtisii is now known as Peyronellaea curtisii.
