Botryolepraria is a genus of byssoid (cottony) lichens of uncertain familial placement in the order Verrucariales. It has two species.

Reports are mostly from shady, humid, protected microhabitats on sheltered rock (often limestone) or on tree bark, including cave entrances and damp woodland or swamp habitats.
