1) Deuteromycetes
The fungi imperfecti or imperfect fungi, are fungi which do not fit into the commonly established taxonomic classifications of fungi that are based on biological species concepts or morphological characteristics of sexual structures because their sexual form of reproduction has never been observed.
Imperfect fungi are those that do not display a sexual phase. They are classified as belonging to the form Phylum Deuteromycota.
The deuteromycetes, commonly called molds, are “second-class” fungi that have no known sexual state in their life cycle, and thus reproduce only by producing spores via mitosis, This asexual state is also called the anamorph state.
