Notes – Aqualignicola was introduced by Ranghoo et al. (2001) to accommodate a single species A. hyalina which was isolated from submerged wood in freshwater in Hong Kong, China. Another species, A. vaginata, was introduced in the genus from submerged wood in Yunnan, China (Hu et al. 2012). There is no sequence data for either species and the family placement requires confirmation. 

Type species: Aqualignicola hyalina Ranghoo, C.K.M. Tsui & K.D. Hyde, Mycol. Res. 105(5): 628 (2001).

Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Aqualignicola.
