Tobi: I think you are right. But the term microfungus is used quite often, though it is not found in taxonomy. I guess the small fungi with short filaments (mycelia) are referred to as microfungus ( Penicillium notatum which produces penicillin is an example). Some fungi which can affect human nails are also referred to as microfungus... very difficult to cure.

It is more descriptive than a class by itself.
