Buckleyzymales |
The Cystobasidiomycetes are a class of fungi in the subdivision Pucciniomycotina of the Basidiomycota. Most species are known from their yeast states; hyphal states, when present, produce auricularioid (laterally septate) basidia and are frequently (possibly always) parasites of other fungi. The class contains five orders ( Buckleyzymales, Cystobasidiales, Erythrobasidiales, Naohideales, and Sakaguchiales) as well as two families ( Microsporomycetaceae and Symmetrosporaceae) and one genus ( Queiroziella) of uncertain disposition. [2] An additional order, Cyphobasidiales, has been proposed to accommodate several lichenicolous species, but its separation from the Erythrobasidiales has not been demonstrated. [3]
