Revision of (, ) to include Sarea and Tromera.

The resinicolous fungi and () were taxonomically revised on the basis of morphological observations and phylogenetic analyses of the nucleotide sequences of the nSSU-LSU---mtSSU genes. The results of phylogenetic analyses show that and are grouped with members of . According to the results of phylogenetic analyses and their sexual and asexual morphs resemblance, is synonymized with . Although has been considered a synonym of based on the superficial resemblance of the sexual morph, we show that they are distinct genera and should be resurrected to accommodate (= ) was morphologically re-circumscribed to comprise a single family () with four genera (, , , and ) sharing an endophytic or plant saprobic stage in their lifecycle, ascostroma-type ascomata with paraphysoid, -type bitunicate asci, and pycnidial asexual morphs. Phylogenetic analyses based on ITS sequences and environmental DNA (eDNA) implied a worldwide distribution of the species. Although has been treated as a member of in previous studies, it was shown to be phylogenetically, morphologically, and ecologically distinct. We, therefore, treated as .
