Zmitrovich and Malysheva (2013) was introdued Cellulariella based on Cellulariella acuta (=Lenzites acuta) (type species) along with Cellulariella warnieri (=L. warnieri), without further justification. Cellulariella was characterized by trametoid, large-sized; daedaleoid to lamellate hymenophore; hyaline sclerohyphae, sympodially and rarely branched, inamyloid, without deposites, in some cases with crystalline encrustation; context cream; clavate basidia and cylindrical basidiospores (Zmitrovich & Malysheva 2013). Later, Welti et al. (2022) clarified the phylogenetic position of C. warnieri (=L. warnieri), to discuss the legitimacy of Cellulariella within the Trametes-clade and redefined the genus Cellulariella: “the moderate amount of scarcely branched, not flagelliform binding hyphae in the context, the pointed and fusiform hyphal ends protruding through the hymenium and a strictly lamelliform (lenzitoid) hymenophore”. Welti et al. (2022) designated C. warnieri as the lectotype. No other species have been introduced to this genus, which remains as two species in Cellulariella.
