This first part of a taxonomic study on the genus Scutellinia (Cooke) Lamb. emend. Le Gal (Pezizales) includes a determination key, systematic review of species found in Czechoslovakia, and a list of species originally described under the genera Lachnea and Sphaerospora but belonging to Scutellinia. Based on revision of herbarium specimens (especially from the National Museum in Prague), three new species (Scutellinia subhirtella, S. subcernuum, S. immersa) are described, along with seven new combinations. The genus is considered difficult due to subtle distinguishing characters and variability.
