This is a list of the genera in the Collemataceae, based on a 2020 review and summary of fungal
classification by Wijayawardene and colleagues,[1] and including a new genus, Hondaria, circumscribed in 2020.[6] Following the genus name is the taxonomic authority (those who first circumscribed the genus; standardized author abbreviations
are used), year of publication, and the number of species:
