Fusicolla is a genus of seven species of ascomycete fungi in the family Nectriaceae. The genus was circumscribed by German mycologist Hermann Friedrich Bonorden in 1851.[1] Fungi in the genus produce slimy orange sheets over the substrate, within which the perithecia can be either fully or partially immersed.[2]
