Liroa is a monotypic genus of fungi found in the family Microbotryaceae. It contains the single species Liroa emodensis, common name Microbotryum emodensis.[1]

The genus name of Liroa is in honour of Johan Ivar Lindroth (1872-1943), who was a Finnish botanist (Mycology) and phytopathologist.[2]

The genus was circumscribed by Raffaele Ciferri in Nuovo Giorn. Bot. Ital. ser.2, vol.40 on page 263 in 1933.
