Type species – Neptunomyces aureus M. Gonçalves, T. Vicente & A. Alves, MycoKeys 60: 37 (2019).
Notes – Neptunomyces was introduced by Gonçalves et al. (2019) to accommodate N. aureus as the type species. Neptunomyces is characterized in having aseptate, golden yellow, subcylindrical conidia with rounded apices. Only the type species is recorded in this genus (Species Fungorum 2020). Therefore, more representative Neptunomyces species are needed for expansion of this genus.
