(1999) established ''Carpoligna'' with the sexual stage of ''Carpoligna pleurothecii'' as the type species and sporulated asexual stage from culture, which was physically linked to ''Pleurothecium recurvatum''.

Thus, ''Carpoligna pleurothecii'' was then regarded as a synonym to ''Pleurothecium recurvatum''. Based on morphological and molecular data, species ''Pleurotheciella'' was found to be closely related to the genera ''Pleurothecium'' and ''Sterigmatobotrys'' in 2012.
