The Xylariales are an order of fungi within the class Sordariomycetes (also known as Pyrenomycetes), subdivision Pezizomycotina, division Ascomycota. It was the original order of the subclass Xylariomycetidae. Xylariales was circumscribed in 1932 by Swedish mycologist John Axel Nannfeldt,[1] and Xylariomycetidae by Ove Erik Eriksson and Katarina Winka in 1997. In 2020, more families (and genera) were added to the order.[2]

Type: Xylaria Hill ex Schrank, Baier. Fl. (München) 1: 200 (1789)[3]

DNA analysis in 2018 confirmed the placement of the order and subclass, it is a sister to the Amphisphaeriales order.[4][5]
