Based on both phylogenetic and morphological analyses, Collariella was established by Wang et al. (2016b) to accommodate one new species and six species transferred from Chaetomium. The genus is characterised by superficial, ovate, obovate, subglobose, ampulliform or cylindrical, ostiolate ascomata, fusiform or clavate, pedicellate, evanescent asci and fasciculate olivaceous brown, broadly limoniform to quadrangular, bilaterally flattened ascospores, with one or two apical or subapical germ pores and no known asexual morphs (Wang et al. 2016a).

Type species: Collariella bostrychodes (Zopf) X. Wei Wang & Samson.

Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Collariella.
