Chytridiomycetes (/kɪˌtrɪdioʊmaɪˈsiːtiːz, -ˈsiːts/^[2]) is a class of fungi. Members are found in soil, fresh water, and saline estuaries. They are first known from the Rhynie chert.^[3] It has recently been redefined to exclude the taxa Neocallimastigomycota and Monoblepharidomycetes, which are now a phylum and a sister-class respectively.^[4]

Chytridiomycetes is the major class of the phylum Chytridiomycota,^[5] which contains a number of parasitic species. At least two species in this class are known to infect a number of amphibian species.^[6]
