CLASS GLOMEROMYCETES
- ORDER GLOMERALES
- Septa formed in older hyphae. Chlamydospores mainly terminal. Defined by ssu rRNA sequences.
- Glomus
- ORDER PARAGLOMERALES
- Defined by ssu rRNA sequences.
- Paraglomus.
- ORDER DIVERSISPORALES
- With or without hypogynous auxillary cells;forming comples spores within a sac on a base that grows from a sporogenous hypha. Defined by ssu rRNA sequences.
- Acaulospora (and some species of Glomus).
- ORDER ARCHAESPORALES
- Forming endocytosymbioses; spores form singly or in loose clusters. Defined by ssu rRNA sequences.
- Archaespora, Geosiphon.
