  • Geleia fossata Kahl, 1933 is the type species of the genus.
  • Geleia heterotricha Dragesco, 1960, redescribed as Gellertia heterotricha Dragesco, 1999

Phylogeny

Comparison and phylogenetic analysis of 18S rRNA sequences showed that Geleia is the sister group to a clade grouping Parduczia orbis with Corlissina maricaensis.[4]
