Sacc.

Gibellia is a genus of fungi within the Melanconidaceae family. According to the 2007 Outline of Ascomycota, the placement of this genus within the Melanconidaceae is uncertain.[1]

The genus name of Gibellia is in honour of Giuseppe Gibelli (1831 – 1898), who was an Italian botanist and lichenologist who was a native of Santa Cristina e Bissone.[2]

The genus was circumscribed by Pier Andrea Saccardo in Atti Reale Ist. Veneto Sci. Lett. Arti series 6, Vol.3 onpage 714 in 1885.
