Abstract :Three new species of Aporomyces (Laboulbeniomycetes) parasitic on beetles from Ecuador are described. These are A. aequatorialis, parasitic on Byrrhinus near B. plenus (Limnichidae); A. benjaminii, parasitic on Plagiogramma sp. (Histeridae); and A. maximus, parasitic on Byrrhinus cf. maculatus. A key to all the species in the genus Aporomyces is given.
