The dimorphic Basidiomycota with yeast stages and the pleiomorphic rusts are examples of fungi with anamorphs, which are the asexual stages. Some Basidiomycota are only known as anamorphs. Many are called basidiomycetous yeasts, which differentiates them from ascomycetous yeasts in the Ascomycota. Aside from yeast anamorphs and uredinia, aecia ...
This is a list of families in the phylum Basidiomycota of kingdom Fungi.The Basidiomycota are the second largest phyla of the fungi, containing 31515 species. [1] The phylum is divided into three subphyla, the Pucciniomycotina (rust fungi), the Ustilaginomycotina (smut fungi), the Agaricomycotina, and two classes of uncertain taxonomic status (incertae sedis), the Wallemiomycetes and the ...
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.

Pucciniomycotina is a subdivision of fungus within the division Basidiomycota.The subdivision contains 10 classes, 21 orders, and 38 families. [3] Over 8400 species of Pucciniomycotina have been described - more than 8% of all described fungi.
This distinction formed the basis of various classifications up to the end of the 20th century. [1] The terms have been used for taxa at the subclass but later at the class level, as fungi were elevated from a phylum of plants to an independent kingdom (consequently shifting the class Basidiomycetes to the phylum Basidiomycota).
Pucciniomycetes (formerly known as Urediniomycetidae) is a diverse class of fungi in the subphylum Pucciniomycotina of phylum Basidiomycota. [3] The class contains 5 orders, 21 families, 190 genera, and approximately 8,016 species. [4] It has been estimated that this class contains about one third of all teleomorphic basidiomycetes.
The family currently comprises two genera, both of which contain fungal parasites with auricularioid (laterally septate) basidia, some of which are known only from their yeast states. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] References
