Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted 12 genera in Microthyriaceae and five genera in Microthyriales genera incertae sedis. Herein, we include only six epifoliar fungal genera (Arnaudiella, Chaetothyriothecium, Microthyrium, Paramicrothyrium, Pseudomicrothyrium and Tumidispora) in Microthyriaceae and accept three epifoliar genera including additional genus Thyriodictyella in Microthyriales genera incertae sedis. We transfer Calothyriopsis to Asterinales incertae sedis based on morphology.
