abstract = {Within the order Mucorales (Zygomycetes), the facultative parasites Parasitella parasitica, Chaetocladium brefeldii, Chaetocladium jonesii, and Absidia parricida are known to initiate biotrophic fusion parasitic interactions on a wide variety of other mucoralean hosts. Their phylogenetic relationship within the Mucorales as well as their ability to form parasitic structures with several known host species was examined. Together with interspecific reactions between the mycoparasites, it could be stated out, that (i) no differences are evident in the spectrum of non-parasitic hosts tested within this study, (ii) Absidia parricida parasitizes all other fusion parasites, (iii) Absidia parricida is ancestral to all other parasites, (iv) Absidia parricida is reported for the first time as phylogenetically basal to all other mucoralean fungi except the Umbelopsidaceae, and (v) based on phylogenetic analyses as well as physiological and morphological characteristics the slow growing species Absidia parricida and Absidia zychae are removed from the genus Absidia and reclassified in the newly described genus Lentamyces.}
