Importance and distribution
Halojulella comprises only one species known on submerged wood of Avicennia alba (Acanthaceae) in the Indian Ocean. Pleospora avicenniae was first described from India by Borse (1987) and was re-collected by Hyde (1992) on a submerged root of Avicenniae alba from Australia (north east coast of Queensland).
