Cryptodiscus is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Stictidaceae. [2]
As of August 2022 [update] , Species Fungorum accepts 15 species in Cryptodiscus: [3]
Scutula is a genus of lichenicolous fungi in the family Ramalinaceae.
The Stictidaceae are a family of fungi in the order Ostropales. The family was first described by Swedish mycologist Elias Magnus Fries in 1849.
Odontotrema is a genus of fungi in the family Odontotremataceae.
Cladia is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Cladoniaceae. Cladia species have a crustose or squamulose (scaly) primary thallus and a fruticose, secondary thallus, often referred to as pseudopodetium. The type species of the genus, Cladia aggregata, is widely distributed, occurring in South America, South Africa, Australasia and South-East Asia to southern Japan and India. Most of the other species are found in the Southern Hemisphere.
Fellhanera is a genus of mostly leaf-dwelling lichens in the family Pilocarpaceae. The genus, circumscribed by lichenologist Antonín Vězda in 1986, honours Austrian lichenologist Josef Hafellner.
Plectocarpon is a genus of lichens in the family Lecanographaceae.
Endococcus is a genus of lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) in the family Lichenotheliaceae. It has 44 species. The genus was circumscribed by the Finnish botanist William Nylander in 1855. Although at least one source places the genus in the Verrucariaceae, a 2016 study of the type species, Endococcus rugulosus, determined that it should instead be placed in the family Lichenotheliaceae of the order Dothideales; this classification echoes a placement proposed in 1979 by David Hawksworth.
Didymocyrtis is a genus of lichenicolous fungi in the family Phaeosphaeriaceae. The genus was circumscribed by Finnish lichenologist Edvard August Vainio in 1921, with Didymocyrtis consimilis assigned as the type species.
Lichenopeltella is a genus of fungi in the class Dothideomycetes with 48 species. Its classification is incertae sedis with respect to familial and ordinal placement within the class. It may be in Trichothyriaceae.
Gyalecta is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Gyalectaceae that contains 50 species. Gyalecta was circumscribed by lichenologist Erik Acharius in 1808. It forms associations with Trentepohlia algae.
Ramonia is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Gyalectaceae. It contains 24 species. The genus was circumscribed by Ernst Stizenberger in 1862.
Stictis is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Stictidaceae.
Mycobilimbia is a genus of lichens in the family Lecideaceae.
Bunodophoron is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Sphaerophoraceae.
Lichenosticta is a genus of fungi of uncertain familial placement in the order Lecanorales. It has five species. All species are lichenicolous, meaning they are parasitic on lichens.
Polycoccum is a genus of lichenicolous fungi in the family Polycoccaceae. It has about 60 species.
Sphaeropezia is a genus of fungi in the family Odontotremataceae. It has 22 species. Originally circumscribed by Pier Andrea Saccardo in 1884, the genus was resurrected and revised in 2013.
Pseudopyrenidium is a genus of lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungi in the family Adelococcaceae. The genus was circumscribed in 2010 by Père Navarro-Rosinés, Mikhail Zhurbenko, and Claude Roux. It has two species:
Graphidales is an order of lichen-forming fungi in the class Lecanoromycetes. It contains 6 families, about 81 genera and about 2,228 species. Family Graphidaceae are the largest crustose family within Graphidales order comprising more than 2000 species, which are widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of the world.
