Scientists often divide fungi into four groups: club fungi, molds, sac fungi, and imperfect fungi,Each type of fungi is classified based on the way it reproduces. The way that these fungi reproduce is difficult to understand and they are hard to classify into what would be called 'normal' sexual reproduction.
