Diederimyces is a genus of fungi in the family Verrucariaceae. [1] A monotypic genus, it contains the single species Diederimyces fuscideae.

The genus name of Diederimyces is in honour of Paul Diederich (b.1959) Luxemburg born mathematician and botanist (Mycology and Lichenology). [2]

The genus was circumscribed by Javier Etayo Salazar in Nova Hedwigia Vol.61 (1-2) on page 190 in 1995.

Leslie Pedley was an Australian botanist who specialised in the genus Acacia. He is notable for bringing into use the generic name Racosperma, creating a split in the genus, which required some 900 Australian species to be renamed, because the type species of Acacia, Acacia nilotica, now Vachellia nilotica, had a different lineage from the Australian wattles. However, the International Botanical Congress (IBC), held in Melbourne in 2011, ratified its earlier decision to retain the name Acacia for the Australian species, but to rename the African species.
