More than 100 recent collections of mostly from Europe were used to elucidate the species composition within the genus. Multigene phylogeny based on SSU, LSU, ITS, and sequences revealed a monophyletic group of ten species within the , belonging to three morphologically similar genera. This group could not be accommodated in any known family and are thus classified in the new family and the new order The genus comprises , , , , sp. nov. and sp. nov., which are phylogenetically well-defined, but morphologically nearly indistinguishable species. The new monotypic genus is introduced to accommodate and are combined in , a genus traditionally treated as a synonym of , which comprises three species, with as its generic type. This work is presented as a basis for additional species to be detected in future.
