Marchandiomyces is a genus of fungi in the family Corticiaceae. ^[1]

Marchandiomyces is named in honour of Louis (Ludwig) Marchand (1807-1843), who was a Luxembourger veterinarian, mycologist, lichenologist, and author. ^[2]

Marchandiomyces corallinus is a lichenicolous species especially found on lichens of the genus Parmelia . ^[3] Other species are lignicolous, forming inconspicuous, effused basidiocarps (fruit bodies) on wood. ^[4]
