Sordariales

Recent phylogenetic studies have aimed to contribute to the natural classification of this order. The most recent phylogenetic tree divides the order into eleven families, based on molecular data from four marker genes. • Bombardiaceae (includes Apodospora (6), Bombardia (43), Bombardioidea (5), Fimetariella (9) and Ramophialophora (4) ) • Chaetomiaceae • Diplogelasinosporaceae (includes Diplogelasinospora (4) ) • Lasiosphaeriaceae • Lasiosphaeridaceae • Naviculisporaceae (includes Areotheca (2), Naviculispora (1), Pseudorhypophila (3) and Rhypophila (4) } • Neoschizotheciaceae (includes Apodus (2), Cercophora (77), Echria (2), Immersiella (2), Jugulospora (1), Neoschizothecium (10), Rinaldiella (1) and Zygopleurage (3) ) • Podosporaceae (includes Lundqvistomyces (2), Pseudoechria (4) and Pseudoschizothecium (1) ) • Sordariaceae • Strattoniaceae (includes Strattonia) • Zygospermellaceae (includes Episternus (1) and Zygospermella (3) ) ==Genera incertae sedis==
