Paranectria Sacc. View in CoL View at ENA , Michelia View in CoL 1 (3): 317. 1878. MycoBank MB 3707.

Type species: Paranectria affinis Sacc.

For a detailed description see Rossman (1983).

Notes: This genus is characterized by globose luteous ascomata, with indistinct tomentum at the base, 8-spored clavate asci and 3-septate hyaline ascospores with elongate appendages. Two specimens of the generic type P. affinis formed a well-supported monophyletic clade which showed a sister relationship to the Rossmaniella clade.

The genus Paranectria has been known to include only lichenicolous species ( Rossman et al. 1999), but recently Paranectria longiappendiculata was described as a fungicolous species on Meliola sp. ( Bermúdez-Cova et al. 2023). However, this species required further studies to confirm its relationship to the generic type of Paranectria .
