Chorioactis Desmazierella Neournula Pseudosarcosoma Trichaleurina Wolfina The Chorioactidaceae are a family of cup fungi in the order Pezizales, first described to contain seven species distributed among five genera.
[1] Pseudosarcosoma was added in 2013 to contain P. latahense when molecular phylogenetic studies demonstrated the fungus to be more closely related to the Chorioactidaceae than to Sarcosoma (family Sarcosomataceae).
[2] With the addition of Trichaleurina, the genus is currently composed of six genera.
[3] Ecologically, taxa in this family are saprotrophic, and inhabit temperate and subtropical regions.
