Class
Common name: Dothideomycetes
Scientific name: Dothideomycetes
Dothideomycetes is a class of fungi within the Ascomycota phylum, known for its diverse species that play various ecological roles. While not typically found in reef aquariums, some species can be marine and may be of interest to hobbyists for their potential in bioremediation. They are characterized by their unique asci, the spore-producing structures. Members of this class are not commonly kept in home aquariums but can be part of the natural biodiversity in well-established systems.
