(with number of genera) The Torpedosporales are an order of marine based fungi in the class Sordariomycetes, subclass Hypocreomycetidae.

[6] Following a re-evaluation of the marine fungi affiliated to the TBM clade, together with the terrestrial genus Falcocladium, new families were introduced to accommodate its four subclades: Juncigenaceae, Etheirophoraceae, Falcocladiaceae, and Torpedosporaceae, which all formerly belonged to the order Torpedosporales (Jones et al. 2014;[7] Abdel-Wahab et al.

[8] Based on phylogeny and morphological data, Maharachchikumbura et al. in 2015 introduced the order Falcocladiales (with family Falcocladiaceae) under the class Sordariomycetes.

35(2): 135 (2014) form well-separated clades within Torpedosporales in the phylogram generated from combined LSU, SSU and rpb2 sequence data.

[12] The divergence time for Torpedosporales is estimated as 185 Mya (million years ago).

While the conidia of Torpedosporaceae are solitary, irregularly helicoid and muriform (meaning resembling courses of bricks or stones in squareness and regular arrangement).
