Frondicola Zhang et al. 2007, gen. nov.
Type species: ¤ Frondicola australicus Zhang et al. 2007.
Etymology: L. n. frons frondis, fallen leaves; L. masc. suffix -cola (from L. n. incola) inhabitant; N.L. masc. n. Frondicola, inhabitant of leaves, leaf dweller.

---> ¤ Frondihabitans Greene et al. 2009, gen. nov.

Note: The name Frondicola Zhang et al. 2007 is illegitimate because it is a later homonym of a fungal genus name Frondicola Hyde 1992 [Frondicola K.D. Hyde, J. Linn. Soc., Bot. 110(2): 100 (1992)]. See Principle 2. Consequently, a new genus designation ¤ Frondihabitans Greene et al. 2009 has been proposed by Greene et al. 2009.
