Hyporthodus is a genus of fish in the family Serranidae, subfamily Epinephelinae (groupers). It contains the following species, most of which were previously placed in Epinephelus:
- Hyporthodus acanthistius (Gilbert, 1892)
- Hyporthodus darwinensis (Randall & Heemstra, 1991)
- Hyporthodus ergastularius (Whitley, 1930)
- Hyporthodus exsul (Fowler, 1944)
- Hyporthodus flavolimbatus (Poey, 1865)
- Hyporthodus haifensis (Ben-Tuvia, 1953)
- Hyporthodus mystacinus (Poey, 1852)

- Hyporthodus quernus (Seale, 1901)
- Hyporthodus septemfasciatus (Thunberg, 1793)
A molecular analysis has shown that most species of Hyporthodus can be identified on the basis of COI barcoding sequences.
