All are coprophilous, and occur on dung of both carnivorous and herbivorous animals. The species are illustrated by scanning electronmicrography of their ascospores, which is the main distinguishing character at species level. Systematics are briefly discussed, and Ascodesmis is genetically close to the genus Eleutherascus}}
