Burgella Diederich & Lawrey 2007, in Diederich & Lawrey, Mycological Progress 6(2), 62 (2007).

            Diagnosis: Colonies appearing as dispersed or rarely agglomerate bulbils. Bulbils honey-colored, ±shiny, without hairs, roundish to shortly ellipsoid or irregular in form, partly immersed to superficial, externally without specialized cells, cells in surface view polyhedral, internally of strongly adherent, more or less roundish to ellipsoid or polyhedral cells separating only with difficulty; clamps not observed. Colonies in liquid culture showing abundant white aerial hyphae, from which orange agglomerations of bulbils arise.

Hyphae hyaline, septate, straight, rarely branched or anastomosed; septa with or without clamp connections. Agglomerations of bulbils gelatinous in appearance, almost coralloid, composed of irregularly shaped bulbils; bulbils externally and internally composed of irregular, roundish or elongate cells with clamped septa.
