Type species – Allonecte lagerheimii (Pat.) Syd., Annls mycol. 37(4/5): 379 (1939).

≡ Broomella lagerheimii Pat., in Patouillard & Lagerheim, Bull. Soc. mycol. Fr. 11(4): 229 (1895).

Notes – This genus has superficial ascomata that develop from a intramatrical hypostroma and cylindrical asci that contain wide, hyaline, uniseptate ascospores (Müller & von Arx 1962, Crane et al. 1998). Allonecte was excluded from the Tubeufiaceae and transferred to Pleosporaceae by Boonmee et al. (2011) because the ascospores are fusiform-ellipsoidal, grey-brown and 1-septate which are typical characters of Pleosporaceae.
