Spinulosphaeria is a genus of fungi in the Sordariomycetes class (subclass Sordariomycetidae) of the Ascomycota.[1] It was placed in 2020, within the Order Coronophorales and in the family of Chaetosphaerellaceae.[2]

It was thought to be a monotypic genus, containing the single species Spinulosphaeria thaxteri, until 2010 when Spinulosphaeria nuda Mugambi & Huhndorf (2010) was discovered on decorticated fallen logs in Puerto Rico.[3]
