Description

Chaetothyriales are primarily dark-colored fungi found in extreme environments like rocks and plant surfaces. Some species can cause infections in humans and animals. They have a unique ability to break down aromatic compounds, making them important in bioremediation. Many chaetothyriales form symbiotic relationships with ants, living in their nests and potentially protecting them from pathogens.
