Basionym Pachyphlodes coalescens Piña Páez, Healy & Cázares, MycoKeys, 82: 166 (2021).
Diagnosis Pachyphlodes coalescens can be recognized by the brown ascomata and two-layered, thick (600–700 μm) peridium, and a gleba marbled with light yellow, meandering, sterile veins alternating with dark brown fertile veins, spores ornamented with truncated spines, that have material deposited at the tips, which accumulates and coalesces with neighboring tip material to form a broad, meandering, roughened, reticulum that hides the underlying spines, growing under Quercus.
