Montagnula

Montagnula is a genus of fungi in the family Didymosphaeriaceae.

The genus, circumscribed by mycologist Augusto Napoleone Berlese in 1896,[1] contains an estimated 24 species in 2008, but is probably polyphyletic as currently circumscribed.

[2] It was originally placed in family Montagnulaceae,[3] before that family was dissolved and it was later placed in family Didymosphaeriaceae,[4] with 34 species (in 2023).

[5] The genus name of Montagnula is in honour of Jean Pierre François Camille Montagne (1784–1866), who was a French military physician and botanist who specialized in the fields of bryology and mycology.
