Batistinula Arx, Publicações Inst. Micol. Recife 287: 4 (1960).

MycoBank number: MB 523; Index Fungorum number: IF 523; Facesoffungi number: FoF 06732; 1 morphological species (Species Fungorum 2020), 1 species with molecular data.

Type species: Batistinula gallesiae Arx, Publicações Inst. Micol. Recife 287: 6 (1960).

Notes: Batistinula typically has 3-septate ascospores. A specimen that shares the same morphological and biometric characteristics of the type was collected and sequenced by Guatimosim et al. (2015). However, that fresh collection was found on a different host family, which may contradict the host-specificity of Asterinaceae.
