Phycomycetes have branched, coenocytic and aseptate mycelium, some are aquatic (hyphomycetes), asexual spores are formed endogenously, sexually reproduce by isogamy, anisogamy, oogamy and show zygospore formation. Zygospore or oospore has thick wall around it which can withstand unfavourable conditions.
