Verrucariales is an order of ascomycetous fungi within the subclass Chaetothyriomycetidae of the class Eurotiomycetes. Although most of the Verrucariales are lichenised,[1] the family Sarcopyreniaceae consists of 11 species of lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungi.[2]
Phylogenomic analysis suggests that the divergence between the lichenized Verrucariales and nonlichenized Chaetothyriales occurred about 131 million years ago.[3]
Genera of uncertain placement
There are some genera in the Verrucariales that have not been placed with certainty into any family. These are:[4]
- Botryolepraria Canals, Hern.-Mar., Gómez-Bolea & Llimona (1997) – 2 spp.
- Gemmaspora D.Hawksw. & Halici (2007) – 1 sp.
- Kalbiana Henssen (1998) – 1 sp.
- Merismatium Zopf (1898) – 10 spp.
