Fungus Orders

The taxonomic orders of the fungus kingdom, covering the mushroom-forming, yeast and other fungal orders catalogued in this atlas under the standard mycological classification (Index Fungorum and the Catalogue of Life), from the gilled mushrooms of Agaricales and the pored bracket fungi of Polyporales through the single-celled yeasts of Saccharomycetales and the mold-forming Eurotiales. Covers every order-rank taxon entity in this atlas identified by its own sourced description as a fungal order. A small subcategory by the sample currently catalogued in this atlas, not a real-world ceiling: the true number of described fungal orders is far larger, and this subcategory is expected to grow as the atlas mints more fungal taxa, per ruling 792's comprehensive-coverage target.
