Pucciniomycotina
Pucciniomycotina is a subdivision of fungus within the division Basidiomycota. The group was known as Urediniomycetes until 2006, when it was elevated from a class to a subdivision and named after the largest order in the group, Pucciniales.
Microbotryomycetes
The Microbotryomycetes are a class of fungi in the subdivision Pucciniomycotina of the Basidiomycota. The class currently contains eight orders, plus three additional, unassigned families (Chrysozymaceae, Colacogloeaceae, and Mycogloiocolacaceae), plus seven additional, unassigned genera (Oberwinklerozyma, Pseudohyphozyma, Reniforma, Spencerozyma, Trigonosporomyces, Vonarxula, and Yunzhangia). Many species are known only from their yeast states. Species with hyphal states typically produce auricularioid (laterally septate) basidia and are often parasitic on other fungi or plants. Several speci

Mixia osmundae
The Mixiomycetes are a class of fungi in the Pucciniomycotina subdivision of the Basidiomycota. The class contains a single order, the Mixiales, which in turn contains a single family, the Mixiaceae that circumscribes the monotypic genus Mixia. Only one species has been described to date, Mixia osmundae; this species was originally named Taphrina osmundae by Japanese mycologist Toji Nishida in 1911. It is characterized by having multinucleate hyphae, and by producing multiple spores on sporogenous cells.
Cystobasidiomycetes
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. An additional order, Cyphobasidiales, has been proposed to accommod

Pseudoturritis turrita
Pseudoturritis is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Brassicaceae. It contains a single species, Pseudoturritis turrita, a biennial or perennial native to central and southern Europe, Algeria, the Caucasus, and the Levant.

Euryoryzomys
Euryoryzomys is a genus of rodents in the tribe Oryzomyini of family Cricetidae. It includes seven species, which are distributed in South America. Until 2006, its members were included in the genus Oryzomys, but they are not closely related to the type species of that genus, and therefore they were placed in a new genus. They are most closely related to genera like Hylaeamys and Transandinomys; many members of these genera were previously placed in a single species, known as Oryzomys capito. The genus name, Euryoryzomys, combines the name "Oryzomys" with the Ancient Greek word eurus "broad",

Hydrogenophilaceae
The Hydrogenophilaceae are a family of the class Hydrogenophilalia in the phylum Pseudomonadota ("Proteobacteria"), with two genera – Hydrogenophilus and Tepidiphilus. Like all Pseudomonadota, they are Gram-negative. All known species are thermophilic, growing around 50 °C, and use molecular hydrogen or organic molecules as their source of electrons to support growth; some species are autotrophs.
Ochrolechiaceae

Classiculomycetes
The Classiculomycetes are a class of fungi in the Pucciniomycotina subdivision of the Basidiomycota. The class contains a single order, the Classiculales, which in turn contains the single family Classiculaceae. The family contains two monotypic genera.
Helicobasidiales
The Helicobasidiales are an order of fungi in the subdivision Pucciniomycotina. The order is currently monotypic, containing the single family Helicobasidiaceae which itself is monotypic, containing the single genus Helicobasidium. The anamorphic genus Tuberculina is a synonym of Helicobasidium, but species are not currently integrated in the latter genus.
Synchromophyceae
Synchromophyceae is a class of photosynthetic stramenopiles. The chloroplast of the Synchromophyceae are surrounded by two membranes and arranged in a way where they share the outer pair of membranes. The entire chloroplast complex is surrounded by an additional two outer membranes.
==Evolution==
Synchromophyceae is a class within the Ochrophyta that contains a few genera of amoeboid organisms, such as the mixotrophic Synchromonas and the heterotrophic Chlamydomyxa and Leucomyxa. It is phylogenetically close to the classes Chrysophyceae and Picophagea, within the SII clade.
Methylocystaceae
The Methylocystaceae are a family of bacteria that are capable of obtaining carbon and energy from methane. Such bacteria are called methanotrophs, and in particular the Methylocystaceae comprise the type II methanotrophs, which are structurally and biochemically distinct from the Methylococcaceae or type I methanotrophs.
Polianthion
Polianthion is a genus of plants in the Rhamnaceae family, first described by Kevin R. Thiele in 2006. The genus name derives from the Greek polios (grey) and anthion (little flower), and describes the small, densely grey-pubescent flowers.
Acanthotrema
Acanthotrema is a genus of lichens in the family Graphidaceae. The genus was circumscribed by German lichenologist Andreas Frisch in 2006, with Acanthotrema brasilianum assigned as the type species. Acanthotrema species are commonly found in rainforests ranging from lowland to montane environments.
Sphingomonadales
The Sphingomonadales are an order of the Alphaproteobacteria.
Ampliotrema
Ampliotrema is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Graphidaceae. The genus was originally described invalidly in 2004, and validly two years later.
Fibrillithecis
Fibrillithecis is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Graphidaceae. The genus was circumscribed in 2006 by the German lichenologist Andreas Frisch, with Fibrillithecis vernicosa assigned as the type species.
Acabyara
Acabyara aruama is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae, the only species in the genus Acabyara.
Ceraceosorales
The Ceraceosorales are an order of smut fungi in the class Exobasidiomycetes. It is a monotypic order, consisting of a single family, the Ceraceosoraceae, which in turn contain a single monotypic genus, Ceraceosorus. C. bombacis is a fungus that infects the tree Bombax ceiba in India. This economically important tree is used as an ornamental tree. Ceraceosorales was circumscribed in 2006; the family Ceraceosoraceae was validated in 2009. C. bombacis was originally described as Dicellomyces bombacis in 1973, but B.K. Bakshi transferred it to the newly described Ceraceosorus three year
Chirodectes
Chirodectes is a very rare, monospecific genus of box jellyfish in the family Chirodropidae.

Melanotrema
Melanotrema is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Graphidaceae. The genus was circumscribed by German lichenologist Andreas Frisch in 2006, with M. platystomum assigned as the type species.
Aciculopsora
Aciculopsora is a small genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Ramalinaceae. The genus was established in 2006 and as of 2025 contains three recognised species, all found growing on tree bark in tropical regions. These lichens are distributed across Central and South America, East Africa, and Sri Lanka, though they appear to be rare or simply under-collected.
Basidiopycnis
Basidiopycnis is a fungal genus in the family Hoehnelomycetaceae. The genus is monotypic, containing the single species Basidiopycnis hyalina. The species forms minute pycnidial basidiocarps (fruit bodies) in bark beetle tunnels. Teleomorphs produce auricularioid (laterally septate) basidia, whilst anamorphs produce asexual conidia. Basidiopycnis hyalina was described from Germany and is also known from Italy and Switzerland. Anamorphic fruit bodies collected in Canada were given the name Basidiopycnides albertensis, but are currently considered conspecific with the European species.
Redingeria
Redingeria is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Graphidaceae. Established in 2006 and named after the Austrian botanist Karl Martin Redinger, the genus contains ten species that grow as bark-dwelling lichens in tropical forests worldwide. These lichens are distinguished by their script-like, elongated fruiting structures with thick black borders and are sensitive to forest disturbance, serving as indicators of undisturbed woodland habitats.
