Faseriaceae
Faseriaceae is a family of fungi in the kingdom Fungi. The taxonomic placement of Faseriaceae has been variable over time, with different classifications proposing membership in several ascomycete lineages. As molecular phylogenetic studies have accumulated, the circumscription and higher‑level placement of the family have remained subject to change, and some sources treat it as incertae sedis within the Ascomycota until further data clarify its relationships.
Description and scope: The family has a relatively small number of described genera and species compared with
Ecology and distribution: Members are typically saprotrophic, feeding on plant substrata such as wood, leaf litter,
Taxonomic status: Faseriaceae is treated in several checklists as provisional or uncertainly placed within the fungal
