Leotiomycetes
The Leotiomycetes are a class of ascomycete fungi. Some members of the class are known as plant pathogens.

Rhytisma acerinum

Helotiales
Helotiales is an order of the class Leotiomycetes within the division Ascomycota. The taxonomy within Helotiales has been debated. It has expanded significantly as genomic techniques for taxonomical identification have become more commonly used. , the order is estimated to contain 30 accepted families, 519 genera, and 6266 species.

Rhytismatales
The Rhytismatales are an order of the class Leotiomycetes within the phylum Ascomycota.
Leotiaceae
The Leotiaceae are a family of fungi in the order Leotiales. Species in this family are saprobic, and have a wide distribution, especially in temperate regions. The family contains 7 genera and 34 species.
Microglossum viride
species of fungus
Rhytismataceae
The Rhytismataceae are a family of fungi in the Rhytismatales order. It contains 55 genera and 728 species.
Lophodermium
Lophodermium is a genus of fungi within the family Rhytismataceae. The genus contains 145 species and has a global distribution. Species of this genus are usually observed producing zone lines, conidiomata and ascomata on dead fallen leaves, but at least some are known to colonize living leaves. In many cases they then live inside the colonized leaf as a symptomless endobiont, where they are regarded as detritivores utilising dead plant matter. In a few cases they may kill all or part of the leaf prematurely, and there is a substantial literature dealing with those species as plant pathogens.
