Type species: Bezerromyces brasiliensis J.D.P. Bezerra, Souza-Motta & Crous, Mycol. Progr. 16: 302 (2017).

Notes: Bezerromyces was established based on the type species B. brasiliensis and a second species B. pernambucoensis. They are known only as endophytes associated with cactus species in tropical dry forests (Bezerra et al. 2017). Their ascomata are superficial or immersed in culture media, and sometimes there have multi-septate, brown chlamydospores linked to ascomata by hyphae (Bezerra et al. 2017).
