Menegazzia is a genus of lichenized fungi containing roughly 70 accepted species. The group is sometimes referred to as the tree flutes, honeycombed lichens, or hole-punch lichens. The most obvious morphological feature of the genus is the distinctive perforations spread across the upper side of the thallus. This makes the group easy to recognise, even for those not particularly familiar with lichen identification.

The species contains several lichen products, including depsides, depsidones, as well as fatty acids and pigments.

Menegazzia neozelandica is a species of foliose lichen from New Zealand, Australia, and South America. It was first described by Austrian botanist Alexander Zahlbruckner in 1929 as Parmelia neozelandica. Peter James transferred it to the genus Menegazzia in 1992.
Menegazzia pertransita is a species of foliose lichen in the large lichen family Parmeliaceae. It is found in New Zealand, Australia, and South America.

Caloplaca allanii is a species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling) and crustose lichen in the family Teloschistaceae. Found in New Zealand, it was formally described as a new species by Alexander Zahlbruckner. The type specimen was collected by Lucy Cranwell on Anawhata Beach in 1932; she sent a dried specimen to Zahlbruckner for identification. The specific epithet allanii honours New Zealand botanist Harry Allan.
Pertusaria allanii is a species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling) and crustose lichen in the family Pertusariaceae. Found in New Zealand, it was scientifically described as a new species in 1941 by Austrian-Hungarian lichenologist Alexander Zahlbruckner. The type specimen was collected from Waiheke Island, where it was found growing on coastal rock. The specific epithet allanii honours the collector, New Zealand botanist Harry Allan. As of 2018, in the New Zealand Threat Classification System, the lichen is considered "At Risk – Naturally Uncommon".
