Cancellidiaceae was established for an asexual genus Cancellidium based on a divergence time study (Hyde et al. 2021). In this study, we propose a new genus Obliquiminima in the family, which is the first sexual morph linked by molecular data and morphologically similar to Annulatascaceae species.

Type genus – Cancellidium Tubaki.
