Lindquistomyces is a fungal genus in the family Amphisphaeriaceae.[1] This is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Lindquistomyces antarcticus.[2] This species was originally described as Ophiobolus antarcticus by Carlos Luigi Spegazzini in 1887.[3]

The genus name of Lindquistomyces is in honour of Juan Carlos Lindquist (1899-1990), who was an Argentinian agricultural engineer and botanist (Mycology), plantpathologist and specialist in uredinales (rust fungi) and Professor at the Universidad Nacional de La Plata.[4]

The genus was circumscribed by Angélica Margarita Arambarri, Emil Müller and Irma Josefa Gamundí de Amos in Sydowia vol.35 on page 6 in 1982.
