Siphulella is a fungal genus in the Icmadophilaceae family. The genus is monotypic, containing the single lichen species Siphulella coralloidea, found in southwest Tasmania. The genus and species was described as new to science in 1992. The genus name is based on the superficial resemblance that S. coralloidea has to some species in the genus Siphula.
