Distoseptisporales was introduced to accommodate a single family Distoseptisporaceae and one genus Aquapteridospora based on morphology and multigene analysis (Luo et al. 2019). Hyde et al. (2021) raised Aquapteridospora as a new family Aquapteridosporaceae regarding to their divergence time study (110 MYA). Hyde et al. (2020) mentioned that Distoseptisporales status might need revision as its divergence time was estimated as 102 MYA which fell in the range of family status (50–130 MYA), while it was 158 MYA in Hyde et al. (2021). In this study, we follow Hyde et al. (2021) and accept the order Distoseptisporales with two families Aquapteridosporaceae and Distoseptisporaceae.

Type family: Distoseptisporaceae K.D. Hyde & McKenzie

Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Distoseptisporaceae.
