Pseudofungi is a Heterokont grouping,[1][2] also known as the Heterokontimycotina.[3] It consists of the Oomycota and Hyphochytridiomycetes.[3] Although numerous biochemical, ultrastructural, and genetic traits clearly place them in the heterokonts, their growth form (featuring Hyphae) and mode of nutrition resembles the fungi (which are not closely related).[3]
