Karsteniomyces is a genus of lichenicolous fungi of unknown familial, ordinal, and class placement in the Ascomycota.[1] The genus was circumscribed by David Leslie Hawksworth in 1980.[2] The species of this genus are found in Europe.[1]

The genus name of Karsteniomyces is in honour of Petter Adolf Karsten (1834–1917), who was a Finnish born mycologist.[3]

The genus was circumscribed by David Leslie Hawksworth in Bull. Brit. Mus. (Nat. Hist.) vol.9 (Issue 1) on page 22 in 1981.
