Scientific classification
Kingdom:	Fungi
Division:	Chytridiomycota
Class:	Chytridiomycetes
Order:	Chytridiales; Cohn (1879)

Fungi of the order Chytridiales, like other members of its division, may either have a monocentric thallus or a polycentric . When the ribosomal genes of members classified in this order were first examined using molecular techniques, it was discovered that the order contained some species that were not related.^[2] With the culture and characterization of , the type species of this order, the limits of the Chytridiales were established.^[3] The Chytridiales is now monophyletic and species such as , and ^[4] have been transferred to other orders.
