Lecaniella

Lecaniella is a small genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Ramalinaceae. It comprises two species. The genus was originally established in 1889 by the Italian lichenologist Antonio Jatta, but fell out of use until it was resurrected in 2019 based on molecular evidence showing that these species form a distinct evolutionary lineage. Lecaniella lichens are characterised by their crustose growth form with lecanorine apothecia (fruiting bodies surrounded by a rim of thallus tissue) and small, broadened ascospores. Species in this genus were formerly classified within the related genus Lecania, from which they are now separated on both molecular and morphological grounds....read more on Wikipedia.
