Gliomastix is a genus of fungi belonging to the family Bionectriaceae. [1]
The genus was first described by Fernand Pierre Joseph Guéguen in 1905. [1]
The genus has cosmopolitan distribution. [2]
The taxonomic placement of Gliomastix is controversial and debated by many authors (Gams 1971; Matsushima 1975; Domsch et al. 2007; Lechat et al. 2010; Summerbell et al. 2011; Kiyuna et al. 2011). Gams (1971) placed Gliomastix in a section of Acremonium . Matsushima (1975) placed Acremonium masseei and Acremonium polychromum in Gliomastix and Lechat et al. (2010) linked G. fusigera with the sexual morph of Hydropisphaera bambusicola . Kiyuna et al. (2011) and Summerbell et al. (2011) revised and compiled the taxonomy of Gliomastix. [3] Kiyuna et al. (2011) agreed with Gams's concept and accepted Gliomastix as a section of Acremonium. However, Summerbell et al. (2011) did not follow the Gams's concept and recognized Gliomastix as a distinct genus. [3] Their phylogenetic analysis supported Gliomastix differs from previous morphological concepts by excluding several distantly related species e.g., Acremonium cerealis and A. inflatum. Maharachchikumbura et al. (2015), [4] and Hyde et al. (2020a) followed the treatment of Summerbell et al. (2011) treated Gliomastix as a distinct genus in family Bionectriaceae. [5]
As of July 2023 [update] , Species Fungorum (in the Catalog of Life) accepts about 19 species of Gliomastix; [6]
The Hypocreales are an order of fungi within the class Sordariomycetes. In 2008, it was estimated that it contained some 237 genera, and 2647 species in seven families. Since then, a considerable number of further taxa have been identified, including an additional family, the Stachybotryaceae. Wijayawardene et al. in 2020 added more families and genera to the order. According to the Catalog of Life, As of April 2021 the Hypocreales contains 6 families, 137 genera, and 1411 species. Hyde et al. (2020a) listed 14 families under Hypocreales, while, Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted 15 families in the order, where Cylindriaceae was additionally added. Earlier, Hyde et al. (2020a) had placed Cylindriaceae in class Xylariomycetidae. Samarakoon et al. (2022) agreed. Hence, Cylindriaceae should have been excluded from Hypocreales and placed in Xylariomycetidae. Xiao et al. (2022) recently introduced a new family Polycephalomycetaceae to Hypocreales.
The Nectriaceae comprise a family of fungi in the order Hypocreales. It was circumscribed by brothers Charles and Louis René Tulasne in 1865. In 2020, an Outline of fungi was produced and listed 70 genera and about 1,336 species.
Stachybotrys is a genus of molds, hyphomycetes or asexually reproducing, filamentous fungi, now placed in the family Stachybotryaceae. The genus was erected by August Carl Joseph Corda in 1837. Historically, it was considered closely related to the genus Memnoniella, because the spores are produced in slimy heads rather than in dry chains. Recently, the synonymy of the two genera is generally accepted. Most Stachybotrys species inhabit materials rich in cellulose. The genus has a widespread distribution and contained about 50 species in 2008. There are 88 records of Stachybotrys on Species Fungorum, of which 33 species have DNA sequence data in GenBank. Species in the genus are commonly found in soil, plant litter and air and a few species have been found from damp paper, cotton, linen, cellulose-based building materials water-damaged indoor buildings, and air ducts from both aquatic and terrestrial habitats.
Hypocreomycetidae is a subclass of sac fungi.
The Halosphaeriaceae are a family of fungi in the Sordariomycetes class, subclass Hypocreomycetidae. Halosphaeriaceae is the family with the largest number of marine fungi with a few species are from freshwater and terrestrial habitats.
The Melanosporales is a former order of fungi within the class Sordariomycetes.
The Bionectriaceae are a family of fungi in the order Hypocreales. A 2008 estimate places 35 genera and 281 species in the family. Species in the family tend to grow on plant material, including woody debris, while some species associate with algae, bryophytes, or other fungi.
The Trichosphaeriales are an order of sac fungi. It is monotypic, and consists of the single family, the Trichosphaeriaceae. In 2017, the family of Trichosphaeriaceae was placed in Diaporthomycetidae families incertae sedis, which was accepted by Wijayawardene et al. (2018), and Wijayawardene et al. 2020. The order of Trichosphaeriales was also unplaced. They are generally saprobic and pathogenic on plants, commonly isolated from herbivore dung.
Tengiomyces is a genus of fungi in the Coronophorales order of the Ascomycota. The relationship of this taxon to other taxa within the Sordariomycetes class is unknown, and it has not yet been placed with certainty into any family. This is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Tengiomyces indicus.
Glomerellales is an order of ascomycetous fungi within the subclass Hypocreomycetidae (Sordariomycetes). The order includes saprobes, endophytes and pathogens on plants, animals and other fungi with representatives found all over the world in varying habitats.
Diaporthomycetidae is a subclass of sac fungi under the class Sordariomycetes.
Savoryellomycetidae is a subclass of sac fungi within the class of Sordariomycetes. It contains 4 known orders of Conioscyphales, Fuscosporellales, Pleurotheciales and Savoryellales.
Fuscosporellales is an order of fungi within the phylum of Ascomycota and in the class Sordariomycetes and subdivision of Pezizomycotina.
