Nomuraea is a genus of fungi in the family Clavicipitaceae.[2]

The genus name of Nomuraea is in honour of H. Nomura (b.1897), who was a Japanese scientist.[3]

The genus was circumscribed by André Maublanc in Bull. Soc. Mycol. France vol.19 on page 295 in 1903.

Reclassified Species Names

Five species have been reassigned to other genera, including the entomopathogenic fungus species "Nomuraea rilei" (now in Metarhizium) which shows potential for control of insect pests in the Noctuidae.
