Type species: Parenglerula macowaniana (Thüm.) Höhn., Sber. Akad. Wiss. Wien, Math.-naturw. Kl., Abt. 1 119: 465 [73 repr.] (1910).

≡ Meliola macowaniana Thüm., Mycoth. Univ., cent. 6: no. 568 (1876).

Notes: Parenglerula was erected by von Höhnel (1910) with seven species. Parenglerula is similar to Englerula in having superficial, globose to subglobose, dark ascomata containing obovoid asci and broadly ellipsoid to subobovoid ascospores with a single septum, but differs by darker ascomata and ascospores (von Höhnel 1910; Dai et al. 2014b). The genus has not been studied recently and thus needs fresh collections.
