The Mixiomycetes are a class of fungi in the Pucciniomycotina subdivision of the Basidiomycota. The class contains a single order, the Mixiales, which in turn contains a single family, the Mixiaceae that circumscribes the monotypic genus Mixia.[4] Only one species has been described to date, Mixia osmundae; this species was originally named Taphrina osmundae by Japanese mycologist Toji Nishida in 1911.[5] It is characterized by having multinucleate hyphae, and by producing multiple spores on sporogenous cells.[3]
The genus name of Mixia is in honour of Arthur Jackson Mix (1888-1956), who was an American mycologist, who worked at the University of Kansas and used to study of the 'Taphrinales'.[6]
The genus was circumscribed by Charles Lawrence Kramer in Mycologia vol.50 (Issue 6) on page 924 in 1958.[citation needed]
