Jones & Eaton (1969) introduced Savoryella, with Sa. lignicola as the type species, originally found on Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) test blocks in a water-cooling tower in the UK (Eaton & Jones 1971). Currently, 15 accepted Savoryella species are listed in Index Fungorum (2024). Members of Savoryella have been reported on different hosts and substrates, such as Avicennia marina and Rhizophora mucronata (Pande 2008) from India, Platanus sp. from France (Reblova et al. 2011), Pinus massoniana (Zhuang et al. 2001), Machilus velutina, Bambusa sp. (Lu et al. 2000) from China, Phragmites australis (Eriksson 2014) from Sweden, and submerged decaying wood from Australia (Hyde & Goh 1998). To date, no species of this genus have been reported from peat swamp forests. In this study, we introduce Sa. narathiwatensis as a novel species on Eleiodoxa conferta from the peat swamp forest in Narathiwat, Thailand.
