Conidiobolus is a genus of fungi in order Entomophthorales. ^[3] Some species were defined in Conidiobolus but then moved into other genera such as Capillidium and Batkoa . ^{[4] [2]}

Some species in this genus may cause a human infection known as conidiobolomycosis; others are invertebrate pathogens.
