Marcelleina is a genus of fungi within the Pezizaceae family.[1] The genus was circumscribed in 1967.[2]

The genus name of Marcelleina is in honour of Marcelle Louise Fernande Le Gal (1895-1979), who was a French mycologist and lichenologist.[3]

Species[edit]

According to a standard reference text, Marcelleina is widespread in distribution and contains nine species;[4] two new species were since published in 2010 and 2011.[5][6]
