Scientific classification
Kingdom:	Fungi
Division:	Ascomycota
Class:	Laboulbeniomycetes
Order:	Laboulbeniales
Family:	Laboulbeniaceae
Genus:	Hesperomyces; Thaxt. (1891)

Hesperomyces is a genus of fungi in the family Laboulbeniaceae. The genus contains ten species,[1] including the type species Hesperomyces virescens. Hesperomyces virescens is a complex of species,[2] and a parasite of an invasive alien species, the harlequin ladybird (Harmonia axyridis).[3] Laboratory bioassays pointed out that Hesperomyces-infected ladybirds suffered increased mortality rates.[4]
