Political Region
Dictyochaeta querna is strikingly similar to D. fuegiana. Using multigene phylogenetic analysis of four loci, it was revealed that D. querna forms a monophyletic strongly supported clade separated from D. fuegiana and the morphologically similar D. stratosa. (Rebolva et al. 2021, no records from NZ)

New record from New Zealand. This species was originally described from Quercus robur but I have also found it in association with Quercus ilex at Westonbirt Arboretum in the UK (J. A. Cooper 4137, 24 Mar 1991).
Dictyochaeta simplex (S.Hughes & W.B.Kendr.) Hol.-Jech. is frequently recorded in association with Quercus ilex in the UK.
Kuthubutheen & Nawawi (1991) provided a comprehensive key to species of Dictyochaeta and Codinaea. A key to species described since 1991 was provided by Whitton et al. (2000).
