The Ostropales are an order of the Ascomycota mushrooms . Many representatives are lichen builders .

features

The order contains morphologically and ecologically very diverse lichens . The genus Trentepohlia occurs predominantly as a photobiont .

Systematics

DNA sequence analyzes have shown that the former order Gyalectales lies within the clade of the Ostropales, and is therefore counted among the Ostropales today. Likewise, the representatives of the earlier orders Gomphillales, Graphidales and Trichoteliales are now included in this order. A cladogram looks like this:

	Ostropales 2    Solorinellaceae      Thelotremataceae      Graphidaceae   Gyalectales    Gyalectaceae      Coenogoniaceae      Phlyctidaceae   Ostropales 1    Stictidaceae

The families Gomphillaceae and Porinaceae , which also belong to the Ostropales, were not included in the investigation. The position of the Odontotremataceae has not yet been confirmed by phylogenetic studies.

Eriksson 2006 counts the following families (with selected genera and species) to the Ostropales or Gyalectales and Trichoteliales:
