Abstract: In this paper we deal with the problem of classifying the genera of quotient curves $mathcal{H}_q/G$, where $mathcal{H}_q$ is the $mathbb{F}_{q^2}$-maximal Hermitian curve and $G$ is an automorphism group of $mathcal{H}_q$. The groups $G$ considered in the literature fix either a point or a triangle in the plane $mPG(2,q^6)$. In this paper, we give a complete list of genera of quotients $mathcal{H}_q/G$, when $GleqmAut(mathcal{H}_q)congmPGU(3,q)$ does not leave invariant any point or triangle in the plane. As a result, the classification of subgroups $G$ of $mPGU(3,q)$ satisfying this property is given up to isomorphism.
