Meliolales is a fungal order in the class Sordariomycetes.[1] Meliolales, also known as black mildews, are obligate parasitic ascomycetous fungi that are found in the tropics and subtropics on leaves, twigs, and sometimes fruit of vascular plants. As parasites, they are frequently parasitized by other fungi, known as hyperparasites.[2]
