Verrucariales is an order of ascomycetous fungi within the subclass Chaetothyriomycetidae of the class Eurotiomycetes. Although most of the Verrucariales are lichenised,^[1] the family Sarcopyreniaceae consists of 11 species of lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungi.^[2]

Phylogenomic analysis suggests that the divergence between the lichenized Verrucariales and nonlichenized Chaetothyriales occurred about 131 million years ago.^[3]

There are some genera in the Verrucariales that have not been placed with certainty into any family. These are:^[4]
