Sporidiobolales
The Sporidiobolales are an order of fungi in the Microbotryomycetes class of the Basidiomycota.[1] The order contains a single family, the Sporidiobolaceae, which in turn contains seven genera and 83 species.[1] Three of these genera, Aessosporon, Rogersiomyces, and Sporidiobolus, are classified in the Sporidiobolaceae, while the remaining four, Ballistosporomyces, Rhodosporidium, Rhodotorula, and Sporobolomyces, are incertae sedis with respect to familial placement.
