'''''Lasioloma''''' is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Ectolechiaceae. The genus was circumscribed by the Swedish lichenologist Rolf Santesson in 1952, with ''Lasioloma arachnoideum'' assigned as the type species.<ref name="Santesson 1952"/> Found predominantly in tropical rainforests, genus ''Lasioloma'' contains both foliicolous (leaf-dwelling) and corticolous (bark-dwelling) species. The foliicolous species are distinguished by their woolly prothallus (initial growth stage), a thallus that ranges from dispersed to continuous, and a hairy {{lichengloss|apothecial}} margin (the edge of the spore-producing structure). In contrast, corticolous species typically do not have a woolly prothallus, and their thalli are usually continuous, or unbroken. Regardless of the substrate they inhabit, all known ''Lasioloma'' species are characterized by the production of {{lichengloss|campylidia}} (types of specialized reproductive structures) and branched {{lichengloss|conidia}} (asexual, non-motile spores).<ref name="Wang et al. 2023"/>
