Dimargaritales is a monotypic order of fungi in the monotypic Dimargaritomycetes class within the subdivision of Kickxellomycotina.[2]

Dimargaritales was published in 1979, while Dimargaritomycetes was published by Tedersoo et al. in Fungal Diversity vol.90, Issue 1 on page 151 in 2018.[3]

It is parasitic.[4] But can grow solitary on agar media, thus cold facultative parasite.

Only one family, Dimargaritaceae, exists, containing three genera:
