Teloschistes sieberianus is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), foliose lichen in the family Teloschistaceae. [2] This Australasian species was formally described as new to science by Johann Friedrich Laurer in 1827, as Parmelia sieberiana. Johannes Hillmann transferred the taxon to the genus Teloschistes in 1930. [3]
The lichen is found in the coastal wetlands of the East Australia coast, [4] in the Australian Capital Territory, [5] on Kaikōura Island (Great Barrier Island), [6] and Kawau Island. [7]
