Chaetothyriales
The Chaetothyriales are an order (biology), order of ascomycetous fungus, fungi in the class Eurotiomycetes and within the subclass Chaetothyriomycetidae. The order was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed in 1987 by mycologist Margaret Elizabeth Barr-Bigelow. Families and genera , Species Fungorum includes 9 families, 97 genera, and 691 species in the Chaetothyriales. The following list shows the families, genera, and number of species in the Chaetothyriales, adapted from a recent (2020) taxonomic and nomenclatural review of the order. *Chaetothyriaceae ::''Actinocymbe'' – 3 spp. ::''Aithaloderma'' – 12 spp. ::''Aphanophora'' – 1 sp. ::''Arthrophiala'' – 1 sp. ::''Camptophora'' – 2 spp. ::''Ceramothyrium'' – 39 spp. ::''Ceratocarpia'' – 3 spp. ::''Chaetothyriomyces'' – 1 sp. ::''Chaetothyrium'' – 67 spp. ::''Cyphellophoriella'' – 1 sp. ::''Euceramia'' – 3 spp. ::''Longihyalospora'' – 2 spp. ::''Microcallis'' – 9spp. ::''Nullicamyces'' – 1 sp. :: ...

Fonsecaea Pedrosoi
''Fonsecaea pedrosoi'' is a fungal species in the family Herpotrichiellaceae, and the major causative agent of chromoblastomycosis. This species is commonly found in tropical and sub-tropical regions, especially in South America, where it grows as a soil saprotroph. Farming activities in the endemic zone are a risk factor for the development of chromoblastomycosis. Taxonomy '' Fonsecaea'' is a genus of ascomycetous fungi affiliated with the family Herpotrichiellaceae. The genus comprises three sibling species, all with pathogenic potential: ''F. pedrosoi'', '' F. monophora'' and '' F. nubica''. The species was first formally described in 1922 as ''Hormodendrum pedrosoi'' by French parasitologist Émile Brumpt. Pablo Negroni transferred it to the genus '' Fonsecaea'' in 1936. Sparingly branched, brownish conidiophores produce clusters of one-celled, club-shaped conidia in short, dry, unbranched chains. A '' Phialophora''-like asexual state sometimes appears ...
