Scope note
In 2011, the broadly defined family Trichocomaceae was split into three separate families: Aspergillaceae, Trichocomaceae (redefined), and Thermoascaceae, based on phylogenetic and morphological differences. Family of fungi that are cosmopolitan in distribution, common in soil, and associates of decaying plant and food material, adaptable to extreme environmental conditions, and having aggressive colonization strategies.
