In accordance with these phylogenetic results, a new name for this clade, the monotypic genus Velenovskya, is proposed around the new combination Velenovskya vacini. Phylogenetic and taxonomic relationships between Velenovskya and related genera are discussed, and an updated morphological description, including extensive macro- and micro-morphological images, is provided.
