Pleurothecium is a genus of terrestrial and freshwater fungi in the family Pleurotheciaceae. It is typified by Pleurothecium recurvatum as the type species , which has the synonym of Carpoligna pleurothecii , Mycologia 9: 253. 1999.

==History== Fernández et al. (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. Réblová et al. (2016) proposed to adopt Pleurothecium over Carpoligna (Art. F.8.1, Shenzhen code). Thus, Carpoligna pleurothecii was then regarded as a synonym to Pleurothecium recurvatum.
