Lecanoromycetes is the largest class of lichenized fungi.^[1] It belongs to the subphylum Pezizomycotina in the phylum Ascomycota.^[2] The asci (spore-bearing cells) of the Lecanoromycetes most often release spores by rostrate dehiscence.^[1]

They are monophyletic (a group of taxa composed only of a common ancestor).^[3]

The are several genera in the Lecanoromycetes that have not been placed into any order or family. These are:^[4]
