Hyperphyscia is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Physciaceae. [1]
As of July 2024 [update] , Species Fungorum (in the Catalogue of Life) accept eight species of Hyperphyscia: [2]
The Stictidaceae are a family of fungi in the order Ostropales. It has 30 genera and about 240 species.
Sarcographa is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Graphidaceae. It is estimated to contain 37 species. The genus was circumscribed by French botanist Antoine Laurent Apollinaire Fée in 1825.
Anomomorpha is a genus of lichens in the family Graphidaceae. The genus, described in 1891, has a pantropical distribution.
Xanthoria is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Teloschistaceae. Common names include orange lichen, orange wall lichen, and sunburst lichen. They can be identified by their characteristic squamulose morphology with distinctive "fairy cups".
Bactrospora is a genus of lichen-forming fungi of uncertain familial placement in the order Arthoniales. It was circumscribed by Abramo Bartolommeo Massalongo in 1852.
Acrocordia is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Monoblastiaceae.
Merismatium is a genus of lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungi of uncertain familial placement in the order Verrucariales. The genus was circumscribed in 1898 by Friedrich Wilhelm Zopf.
Normandina is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Verrucariaceae. It has five species of crustose and squamulose (scaly) lichens.
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.
Leptochidium is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Massalongiaceae. It has two species:
Amygdalaria is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Lecideaceae.
Paraporpidia is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Lecideaceae. It has three species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling) crustose lichens. The genus was circumscribed by Gerhard Rambold and M. Pietschmann in 1989, with Paraporpidia aboriginum assigned as the type species.
Synarthonia is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the order Arthoniales. The genus has not been placed into a family. Synarthonia was circumscribed by Swiss lichenologist Johannes Müller Argoviensis in 1891.
Baeomyces is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Baeomycetaceae. Members of Baeomyces are commonly called cap lichens. The genus was circumscribed by German mycologist Christiaan Hendrik Persoon in 1794. Although Persoon did not designate a type species in his original description of the genus, Frederick Clements and Cornelius Lott Shear assigned Baeomyces byssoides as the type in 1931.
Leproplaca is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Teloschistaceae. Its exhibits a leprose growth form, where the thallus consists primarily of asexual propagules called soredia.
Brownliella is a genus of crustose lichens in the subfamily Teloschistoideae of the family Teloschistaceae. It has two species. The genus was circumscribed in 2013 by Sergey Kondratyuk, Ingvar Kärnefelt, John Elix, Arne Thell, and Jae-Seoun Hur, with the widely distributed lichen Brownliella aequata assigned as the type species. The genus contains species formerly referred to as the Caloplaca cinnabarina species group. The generic name honours Australian botanist Sue Brownlie.
Bryostigma is a genus of lichen-forming fungi of uncertain familial placement in the order Arthoniales. The genus was circumscribed in 1979 by Josef Poelt and Peter Döbbeler, with the muscicolous lichen Bryostigma leucodontis assigned as the type species. A dozen Arthonia species were transferred into the genus in 2020 following molecular phylogenetic analysis of the family Arthoniaceae that showed distinct phylogenetic lineages that were basal to that family. The genus contains several parasitic species that occur on hosts having chlorococcoid photobionts.
Pyrenidium is a genus of lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungi. It is the only genus in the family Pyrenidiaceae. It has 13 species.
Dimidiographa is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Roccellographaceae. It has three species of crustose lichens, with Dimidiographa loandensis serving as the type species.
Sarcographina is a genus of script lichens in the family Graphidaceae. It has six species. The genus was circumscribed by the Swiss lichenologist Johannes Müller Argoviensis in 1887, with Sarcographina cyclospora assigned as the type species.
