2.2.4 Monoblastiales ( Dothideomycetes, Ascomycota)

The genus Heleiosa was introduced by Kohlmeyer et al. (1996), for the type species H. barbatula, growing on leaves of Juncus roemerianus in salt marshes, and referred to the Dothideomycetes incertae sedis. Subsequently it was attributed to Monoblastiaceae ( Monoblastiales) which includes both lichenized and non-lichenized ascomycetes (Wijayawardene et al. 2022). Monoblastiales was introduced by Hyde et al. (2013), and H. barbatula was referred to this order by Hongsanan et al. (2020b).
