*Order V. Actinomycetales Buchanan, 1917 694 



* Erratum: Due to a clerical error the orders Caryophanales and Actinomycetes of the 



class Schizomycetales appear in the wrong sequence in numerous places throughout the 

 MANUAL: correctly, Caryophanales is Order V and should appear before Order VI, Acti- 

 nomycetales (see pages 12, 33, and 34 for reasons why Caryophanales precedes Actinomyce- 

 tales in the classification scheme).
