Peccania tiruncula is a species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling), squamulose to dwarf fruticose lichen in the family Lichinaceae. It was first described as a new species in 1878 by the Finnish lichenologist William Nylander, who classified it in the genus Omphalaria. The type specimen was collected by Johan Petter Norrlin in Biskra. Aino Henssen transferred it to the genus Peccania in 1990.
