Leptoxyphium Speg., Physis, B. Aires 4: 294 (1918) Index Fungorum number: IF8762; 17 morphological species (Species Fungorum 2020), 5 species with molecular data. ≡ Caldariomyces Woron., Annls Mycol. 24(3/4): 261 (1926) [...]
Phylogenetic analyses of strains from an aquatic environment, including LSU, SSU and rpb2 sequence data, grouped them in a monophyletic clade with Achroceratosphaeria species (Réblová et al. 2015a). The new taxa were placed in the novel genus, Pisorisporium and a new family, Pisorisporiaceae was erected to accommodate Pisorisporium and Achroceratosphaeria. The latter genus was, upon [...]
Pisorisporiomycetidae Bundhun, Maharachch. & K.D. Hyde, subclass nov. Index Fungorum number: IF556880 Saprobic on submerged wood or driftwood. Sexual morph: Ascomata astromatic, perithecial, solitary or aggregated in small groups, immersed, semi-immersed to superficial, ostiolate. Ostiole periphysate. Peridium 2-layered, leathery to fragile, partly carbonaceous. Paraphyses abundant, hyaline, persistent. Asci 8-spored, unitunicate, pedicellate, persistent, with a [...]
Huhndorf et al. (2004) introduced this order for Chaetosphaeriaceae. Linocarpaceae was added to Chaetosphaeriales by Konta et al. (2017) to accommodate Neolinocarpon and Linocarpon, which are previously accepted in Xylariales, genera incertae sedis (Maharachchikumbura et al. 2015, 2016b). Konta et al. (2017) also established Leptosporellaceae to accommodate Leptosporella, which was maintained in Chaetosphaeriales genera [...]

Holotype – MFLU 19-0725 Thallus crustose, corticolous, epiphloedal, corticated and well-developed, surface pale gray. Prothallus indistinct. Photobiont present. Asexual morph: Undetermined. Sexual morph: Ascomata apothecial, 450–850 [...]
Acolium (Ach.) Gray, Nat. Arr. Brit. Pl. I: 482 (1821) Index Fungorum number: IF43; Acolium was resurrected by Prieto & Wedin (2017), and comprises both lichenized and lichenicolous taxa. The species grow on wood or bark and are characterized by a dark excipulum, greyish-brown thallus (or are lichenicolous and do not form an independent [...]
Caliciaceae Chevall., Fl. gén. env. Paris 1: 314. (1826) Index Fungorum number: IF80543; The lichenized family Caliciaceae was introduced by Chevallier (1826) to encompass both lichenized and lichenicolous speciesb (Prieto & Wedin 2017). This family comprises 36 genera (Lücking et al. 2017, Wijayawardene et al. 2017, 2020). The taxa are characterized by prototunicate asci [...]

Asexual morph: Hypomycetous. Colonies on natural substrate, in small groups, blackish brown, velvety, glistening, with conidia readily liberated when disturbed. Mycelium immersed in the substrate, composed of septate, branched, smooth, hyaline [...]
Yunnanomyces Tibpromma & K.D. Hyde, in Tibpromma et al., Fungal Diversity: 10.1007/s13225-018-0408-6, [75] (2018) Index Fungorum number: IF555334; Yunnanomyces species are characterized by broadly oval, yellow-brown, muriform conidia. Yunnanomyces was introduced by Tibpromma et al. (2018) to include Y. pandanicola as the type species. Currently, only two species are accepted in Species Fungorum (2020), [...]
