Importance and distribution

There are 61 records of Gloniella in Index Fungorum (2022), but several species have been transferred to other genera such as Allographa, Ericboehmia, Fouragea, Glonium, Hysterium, Hysteroglonium, Hysteronaevia, Leptopeltis and Terriera. Gloniella comprises 42 species known on many host plants such as Abies grandis (Pinaceae), Adiantum (Pteridaceae), Avicennia marina (Acanthaceae), Bambusa sp. (Poaceae), Chusquea cumingii (Poaceae), Clinopodium chilense (Lamiaceae), Coumarouna odorata (Fabaceae), Dasyphyllum excelsum (Asteraceae), Dracaena draco (Asparagaceae), Fagus sp. (Fagaceae), Gardoquia gilliesii (Labiatae), Grammitis magellanica (Polypodiaceae), Holoschoenus linnei (Fabaceae) and Trichomanes (Hymenophyllaceae). Gloniella has wide distribution including Africa (Canary Islands, South Africa), Asia (India, Pakistan), Europe (England, Germany, Ireland, Spain, United Kingdom), South America (Argentina, Brazil, Chile) and the United States (New York). There is a need for more collections of Gloniella as molecular data is lacking for this genus.
