Type species – Gregatothecium humicola L. Lombard & Crous

Notes – The genus differs from the similar genera by the slimy olivaceous green conidial masses produced on the conidiophores and sporodochia (Lombard et al. 2016). Unbranched and hyaline setae arise from the basal stroma, (Lombard et al. 2016). Conidiophores are penicillately branched, conidiogenous cells are phialidic and hyaline and conidia are aseptate and cylindrical to subcylindrical (Lombard et al. 2016).
