Dematiaceae is not Dermateaceae
Dematiaceae is an artificial and polyphyletic grouping of all dark hyphae and/or dark spored deuteromycetes (or you could say "fungi imperfecti").

Meanwhile, Dermateaceae is an extant family of cup fungi - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermateaceae

The two are not connected beyond being Fungi taxonomy terms, and being spelled very similarly.

Currently all the links in this article (and the article for Fungi Imperfecti) redirect to Dermateaceae from "Dematiaceae" for some reason. I am going to try to correct this so they go to either a page for Dematiaceae, a page that contains an explanation of Dematiaceae, or (if none of that is possible) will remove the links altogether.
