Thorea is distributed throughout temperate and tropical regions.
There is only one species of Thorea in the British Isles: Thorea hispida (Thore) Desvaux (Synonyms: Thorea anadina Lagerheim et K.Mobius, T. lehmannii Horneman and T. ramosissima Bory).

The first record of Thorea ramosissima in the British Isles is in Harvey's Manual (1841): Found in a pool in a bog in the Co Donegal Mountains, going from Letterkenny to Dunfanaghy; July. These specimens are in the Ulster Museum (BEL: F42–F47), but proved to have been incorrectly identified and were specimens of Batrachospermum.
