Sporoilaceae

Sporoilaceae is a family of fungi within the order Pleosporales. This family was established to accommodate certain species with unique morphological and genetic characteristics. The type genus for Sporoilaceae is Sporoila. Members of this family are often found in terrestrial or freshwater environments. They are typically saprotrophic, meaning they obtain nutrients from dead organic matter. The morphology of sporocarps and conidia are key features used in the classification of Sporoilaceae. While research on this specific family is ongoing, it contributes to our understanding of fungal diversity within the Pleosporales. Further phylogenetic studies continue to refine the placement and relationships of species within Sporoilaceae.
