The Antennulariellaceae are a family of fungi in the Ascomycota, class Dothideomycetes.[1] The family was named by Nikolai Nikolaevich Woronichin in 1925[2] to contain the genus Antennulariella that he had described a decade earlier in 1915.[3] Species in the family have a widespread distribution, and are found in warm temperate to tropical locations, where they grow as black sooty molds on plants.[4]
