Explain how fungi are classified into groups?

True fungi are placed in the Kingdom Fungi, which is divded up into a few phyla: Dikaryomycota, Glomeromycota, Zygomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Neocallimastigomycota, and Chytridiomycota. The phylum Dikariomycota is divided up into two subphyla, the Ascomycotina and the Basidiomycotina. All the phyla have further divisions, which are in flux as our understanding of evolutionary relationships, and thus taxonomy, increases.
