About

The Chorioactidaceae are a family of cup fungi in the order Pezizales, first described to contain seven species distributed among five genera. 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. With the addition of Trichaleurina, the genus is currently composed of six genera.
