Stilbella is a genus of fungi in the order Hypocreales. The relationship of this taxon to other taxa within the order is unknown ( incertae sedis ), and it has not yet been placed with certainty into any family. [1] It is sometimes placed in the family Bionectriaceae (order Hypocreales).

A 1985 monograph included 19 species; [2] more recent estimates place about 60 species in the genus. [1] [3] The type species Stilbella fimetaria(Pers.) Lindau 1905 (syn. Stilbella erythrocephala(Ditmar) Lindau 1900) has a cosmopolitan distribution and grows on herbivore dung. It has pink or orange slimy conidia on white synnemata with phialidic conidiogenous cells. [2] Several species have since been reclassified in other genera based on molecular phylogenetics or the discovery of sexual states, such as Atractium , [4] Stilbocrea , and Trichoderma .

Species

As of November 2022, Species Fungorum (in the Catalogue of Life) accepts 60 species of Stilbella. [3]
