Eurotiomycetes is a large
bitunicate in the formation of asci.[3] It contains most of the fungi previously known morphologically as "Plectomycetes".[4]
Systematics and phylogeny
Internal relationships
The class Eurotiomycetes was
monophyletic group comprising most of the fungi in "Plectomycetes", a group no longer in use that unified fungi under exclusively morphological characteristics.[4]
As more orders were added to Eurotiomycetes, the first two along with
Arachnomycetales became constrained to the first subclass, Eurotiomycetidae. In 2001, the second subclass, Chaetothyriomycetidae, was erected to accommodate Chaetothyriales and its sister group Verrucariales, as well as Pyrenulales since 2004. These two remain as the major subclasses of Eurotiomycetes.[4]
The remaining subclasses were created through more phylogenetic analyses to accommodate outlying

External relationships
The class Eurotiomycetes forms a clade with Lecanoromycetes, the largest lichenized class of fungi.[3]

Nomenclature
The
teleomorph
(sexual form) names used in reference to them.
- e.g. anamorph form = Penicillium; teleomorph form = Talaromyces or Eupenicillium.[12]
Morphology
Many members (Eurotiales, Onygenales) produce an enclosed structure
cleistothecium
within which they produce their spores.
