Fungi have cell walls that contain chitin and glucans (but no cellulose) as the skeletal components. What is Phylogenetic Classification? A classification based on the evolutionary relationships is known as Phylogenetic classification . A taxon (plural; taxa) is any category of classification. IMPORTANCE Although classification can be done on the basis of any criteria but classifying on the basis of phylogenetic relationships aid us �   in understanding the evolutionary changes and �   allow one to make prediction on the basis of what is known about an organism and its close relatives.

Modern Classification of Fungi u   According to Hawksworth et al ., 1995 and Alexopoulos and Mims, 1979: The organisms once considered fungi are now
