Jobellisia is a genus of fungi within the family Jobiellaceae, class Sordariomycetes. The genus was circumscribed by Margaret Elizabeth Barr-Bigelow in 1993 with J. luteola as the type species. It contains species that grow on dead wood and bark in tropical and temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere.[2]

Barr originally classified Jobellisia in the family Clypeosphaeriaceae of the order Xylariales.[2] Later phylogenetic work showed that J. luteola and J. fraterna formed a clade that is sister to the order Diaporthales.[3] In 2008, Martina Réblová erected a new genus, Bellojisia (an anagram of Jobellisia), to contain what was then called Jobellisia rhynchostoma, and created the family Jobiellaceae for the remaining Jobellisia species. She demonstrated that Jobiellaceae occupies a basal position in a clade containing the Calosphaeriales and Diaporthales.[4]
