We probably lack a big chunk of the whole picture. Phylogeny is based in fossils, but as most fungi are typically soft, lack of characteristic fruits or wood only a few were fossilized. Even worse, most micelia are indistinguishable from other fungi unless you pick a microscope, thus much less fossil diversity and branching is expected.
