Ceropsora is a genus of rust fungus in the family Coleosporiaceae.

The genus was thought to be monotypic, containing the single species Ceropsora piceae, found growing on spruce in India.[1] Until 2020, when Ceropsora weirii (H.S. Jacks.) Aime & McTaggart (2020) was published. It was formerly published as Chrysomyxa weirii H.S. Jacks., Phytopathology 7: 353 in 1917.[2]
