Caleniopsis is a genus of fungi within the Gomphillaceae family. [2]
The Gomphillaceae are a family of lichens in the order Ostropales. Species in this family are found mostly in tropical regions.
Actinoplaca is a genus of fungi within the Gomphillaceae family.
Aplanocalenia is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Gomphillaceae. This is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Aplanocalenia inconspicua.
Arthotheliopsis is a genus of fungi in the family Gomphillaceae. It has 5 species. The genus was circumscribed by Finnish lichenologist Edvard August Vainio in 1896, with A. hymenocarpoides assigned as the type species.
Aulaxina is a genus of fungi within the Gomphillaceae family.
Calenia is a genus of fungi within the Gomphillaceae family.
Diploschistella is a genus of fungi within the family Gomphillaceae.
Ferraroa is a single-species genus in the family Gomphillaceae. It is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Ferraroa hyalina, a foliicolous (leaf-dwelling) lichen. This species was originally described by Robert Lücking in 1997 as Gyalideopsis hyalina. The type specimen was collected from leaves of Inga oerstediana in Costa Rica. Lücking, Emmanuël Sérusiaux, and Antonín Vězda transferred the taxon to the newly circumscribed genus Ferraroa in 2005 after molecular phylogenetic analysis showed it to belong to a unique lineage. The generic name Ferraroa honours Argentinian lichenologist Lidia Itatí Ferraro, "for her many contributions to lichenology in southern South America, and to our knowledge of Gomphillaceae".
Gomphillus is a genus of lichens within the Gomphillaceae family.
Gyalectidium is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Gomphillaceae. A 2020 estimates placed 52 species in the genus. The genus was circumscribed by Swiss lichenologist Johannes Müller Argoviensis in 1881. He included 3 species: G. xantholeucum, G. dispersum, and G. filicinum; the last of these is now the type species of the genus.
Jamesiella is a genus of fungi in the family Gomphillaceae. The type species of the genus, Jamesiella anastomosans, is now classified in the genus Gyalideopsis.
Lithogyalideopsis is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Gomphillaceae.
Paratricharia is a genus of fungi within the Gomphillaceae family. This is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Paratricharia paradoxa.
Psorotheciopsis is a genus of fungi within the Gomphillaceae family.
Rubrotricha is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Gomphillaceae. It is a monospecific genus, containing the single species Rubrotricha helminthospora.
Gyalideopsis vainioi is a species of lichen in the family Gomphillaceae. It was described as new to science in 1988 by Klaus Kalb and Antonín Vězda from Brazilian collections. The variety Gyalideopsis vainioi var. semicirculataLücking & W.R.Buck was published in 2007; it was found in Florida. The specific epithet honours Finnish lichenologist Edvard Vainio, known for his pioneering work with Brazilian lichens.
Antonín (Toni) Vězda was a Czech lichenologist. After completing a university education that was postponed by World War II, Vězda taught botany at the Czech University of Life Sciences. In 1958, he was dismissed from his university position as a result of the restrictions placed on academic freedoms by the communist regime in power. He eventually was hired as a lichen researcher by the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, who allowed him to work from his apartment, which served also as an office and herbarium.
Rolueckia is a genus of leaf-dwelling lichens in the family Gomphillaceae. It was circumscribed in 2008 by Thai lichenologists Khwanruan Papong, Achra Thammathaworn, and Kansri Boonpragob. The three species in the genus were formerly part of the Calenia conspersa group, previously part of the genus Calenia. The type species, Rolueckia conspersa, was first described as Thelotrema conspersum by James Stirton in 1879.
Gyalideopsis buckii is a species of bark-dwelling lichen in the family Gomphillaceae. It is found in the United States.
Arthotheliopsis serusiauxii is a species of leaf-dwelling lichen in the family Gomphillaceae. It was first formally described as a new species in 1997 by Robert Lücking, as a member of genus Echinoplaca. The type specimen was collected in Costa Rica, growing on the leaves of a dicotyledon. The specific epithet honours Belgian lichenologist Emmanuël Sérusiaux. In 2005, Lücking, Sérusiaux, and Antonín Vězda transferred it to genus Arthotheliopsis after a molecular analysis of the Gomphillaceae helped to clarify the phylogenetic relationships in the family.
