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]
