Pinnaticoemansia coronantispora gen. sp. nov. (Kickxellaceae, Kickxellales) is described and illustrated. This species is characterized by imparipinnate sporocladia (sporocladia arranged in pairs), sporangiospores with a three-lobed corona, and the germination pattern of sporangiospores with downward hyphal growth and repeated dichotomy. The key to the genera of Kickxellales by Kurihara et al. (2001) is revised based on the observation of the germination pattern of this fungus in comparison with that of Asellariales.
