fast-growing, with wide hyphae lacking septa; the hyphae may be simple or ramified
and support sac-like sporangia filled with asexual sporangiospores. Many species are
known to damage stored food, but others can cause mycosis, generally in patients already
infected with other diseases.;

to the Mucorales order level.;
