Proper Form	Microsphaera multipartita Yoshimi et al. 1996
Nomenclatural History	The species Microsphaera multipartita was originally described and validly published by Yoshimi et al. 1996. Tao et al. replaced this illegitimate name with Nakamurella multipartita (Yoshimi et al. 1996) Tao et al. 2004 emend. Nouioui et al. 2018 in 2004. This name is illegitimate because the genus name is a junior homonym of the fungal genus Microsphaera.
