The host spectrum of the Amylostereaceae comprises several, partially very different genera of Coniferae.
A. chailletii usually infests Pinaceae such as firs (Abies) and spruces (Picea), but also cedars (Cedrus) and Douglas firs (Pseudotsuga).
A. areolatum has a similar host spectrum, which uses mainly firs, Japanese cedars (Cryptomeria), larches (Larix), spruces, pines (Pinus) and Douglas firs as hosts.
While spruces dominate as hosts in the native habitat, this species is more common in pines on other locations.
The host spectrum of A. laevigatum comprises Cupressaceae such as junipers (Juniperus) or cypresses (Cupressus) and the English yew (Taxus baccata).
A. ferreum is, however, only common on neotropic yellowwoods (Podocarpus).
