Muyocopronales was established by Mapook et al. (2016) to accommodate the family Muyocopronaceae which is morphologically distinguished from Acrospermales and Dyfrolomycetales, and also formed an independent clade in their phylogenetic study. Currently, there is still only the single family included in Muyocopronales (Wijayawardene et al. 2022a).

Type species: Muyocopronaceae K.D. Hyde.

Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Muyocopronales.
