Fellhaneropsis Sérus. & Coppins 1996
fungi genus in the byssolomataceae family
Fellhaneropsis is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Ectolechiaceae. The genus comprises 11 accepted species as of 2025. These inconspicuous lichens form extremely thin, smooth to powdery films that spread over bark, leaves, or other plant surfaces, and unlike their close relatives in Fellhanera, they produce no detectable lichen products.
Jamesiella Lücking, Sérus. & Vězda 2005
fungi genus in the gomphillaceae family
Jamesiella is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Gomphillaceae. Members of Jamesiella form thin, delicate crusts on tree bark, rocks, and mosses in humid tropical and temperate forests, distributed across North and South America and Europe. The genus is distinguished from its close relative Gyalideopsis by a unique type of asexual reproductive structure called thlasidia, which are specialized stalks containing both fungal filaments and algal cells that detach and disperse as complete units capable of establishing new lichens.
Syncesia madagascariensis Ertz, Killmann, Razafindr., Sérus. & Eb. Fisch. 2009
fungi species in the roccellaceae family
Syncesia madagascariensis is a rare species of crustose lichen in the family Roccellaceae. It is found in Madagascar. This lichen forms large, continuous patches up to 15 cm across on tree bark, with a creamy surface that becomes increasingly cracked with age and distinctive flattened, disc-shaped fruiting bodies that show radiating ridge patterns. It is known only from montane forests near Ambositra at 1705 metres elevation, where it grows on tree trunks in forests dominated by myrtle family trees.
Syncesia afromontana Ertz, Killmann, Sérus. & Eb. Fisch. 2009
fungi species in the roccellaceae family
Syncesia afromontana is a rare species of lichen-forming fungus in the family Roccellaceae. It is found in Rwanda. The lichen has a byssoid (wispy, like teased wool), water-repellent thallus that is greyish to greyish-green and up to 10 cm (4 in) in diameter. It contains protocetraric acid as a major metabolite, and trace amounts of roccellic acid. It is distinguished from other members of its genus by producing ascospores with seven internal divisions rather than the typical three, making it unique within the group.
Sporopodiopsis Sérus. 1997
fungi genus in the byssolomataceae family
Sporopodiopsis is a genus of two species of lichenized fungi in the family Ectolechiaceae. The genus was circumscribed by the Belgian lichenologist Emmanuël Sérusiaux in 1997.

Phylloblastia inexpectata Sérus., Coppins & Lücking 2007
fungi species in the verrucariaceae family
Phylloblastia inexpectata is a species of foliicolous (leaf-dwelling) lichen in the family Verrucariaceae. Found in Europe, it was formally described by lichenologists Emmanuël Sérusiaux, Brian John Coppins, and Robert Lücking. The type specimen was collected by the second author in Dunskey Glen Woods (Portpatrick, Scotland), where it was found growing on the leaves of a Prunus laurocerasus tree growing near a stream. It has also been collected in England, southern Italy, Madeira, and Spain.
Megalotremis cauliflora Aptroot, Sérus. & Lücking 2008
fungi species in the monoblastiaceae family
Megalotremis cauliflora is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), crustose lichen in the family Monoblastiaceae. It was described as a new species in 2008 based on material collected in Guadeloupe, and has since been reported from Sri Lanka. The lichen forms glossy, pale gray patches on bark that can spread across several centimeters, with the perithecia (flask-shaped fruiting bodies) mostly buried in the thallus and visible only as slight bumps. It is unusual for the genus in having tiny brown, flattened blobs made of stuck-together spores at the openings of its asexual structures
Gallaicolichen pacificus (Gallaicolichen) Sérus. & Lücking 2007
fungi species
Gallaicolichen is a fungal genus that contains the single species Gallaicolichen pacificus, a foliicolous (leaf-dwelling) lichen. Originally discovered in Hawaii in 2007, G. pacificus has since been found in various locations across the Pacific, including Australia, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, the Philippines, and Japan. The lichen forms small, pale greenish-yellow to yellowish-grey patches on leaves, typically in mid-altitude forests and along forest edges. G. pacificus is notable for its unique reproductive structures called peltidiangia, which produce disc-shaped propagules (peltidia) for
Fellhanera gyrophorica Sérus., Coppins, Diederich & Scheid. 2001
fungi species in the byssolomataceae family
Fellhanera gyrophorica is a corticolous species in the family Ectolechiaceae. Previously noted in several publications as an unidentified Fellhanera species, it was formally named and described due to its unique characteristics and lack of ascomata (fruiting bodies).

Peltigera weberi Sérus., Goffinet, Miądl. & Vitik. 2009
fungi species in the peltigeraceae family
Peltigera weberi is a rare species of foliose lichen in the family Peltigeraceae. It is found in Papua New Guinea, where it grows on road banks and on earth and rock debris.
Peltigera papuana Sérus., Goffinet, Miądl. & Vitik. 2009
fungi species in the peltigeraceae family
Peltigera papuana is a lichen-forming fungus in the family Peltigeraceae. It was described in 2009 from Madang Province of Papua New Guinea, which inspired its specific epithet. Genetic analysis of both the mycobiont and the photobiont, which is a Nostoc cyanobacterium, suggests that the evolutionary origin of Pelitgera papuana is from an ancient dispersal event from South America, although this remains inconclusive.
Peltigera montiswilhelmii Sérus., Goffinet, Miądl. & Vitik. 2009
fungi species in the peltigeraceae family
Peltigera montis-wilhelmii is a rare species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), foliose lichen in the family Peltigeraceae. Found in Papua New Guinea, it was formally described as a new species in 2009 by Emmanuël Sérusiaux, Bernard Goffinet, Jolanta Miądlikowska, and Orvo Vitikainen. The type specimen was collected from Pindaunde valley on Mount Wilhelm (Chimbu Province) at an altitude of 3,600 m (11,800 ft). The species epithet refers to the type locality.
Peltigera koponenii Sérus., Goffinet, Miądl. & Vitik. 2009
fungi species in the peltigeraceae family
Peltigera koponenii is a species of foliose lichen in the family Peltigeraceae. Found in Papua New Guinea, it was formally described as a new species in 2009 by Emmanuël Sérusiaux, Bernard Goffinet, Jolanta Miądlikowska, and Orvo Vitikainen. The type specimen was collected near Lake Wanba at an altitude of 2,400–2,500 m (7,900–8,200 ft), where it was found growing on a tree trunk in an open montane forest of Nothofagus and Pandanus. The species epithet honours Finnish bryologist Timo Koponen, "who made large and well processed collections of Peltigera in Papua New Guinea".
Peltigera granulosa Sérus., Goffinet, Miądl. & Vitik. 2009
fungi species in the peltigeraceae family
Peltigera granulosa is a species of terricolous (ground-dwelling), foliose lichen in the family Peltigeraceae. Found in Papua New Guinea, it was formally described as a new species in 2009 by Emmanuël Sérusiaux, Bernard Goffinet, Jolanta Miądlikowska, and Orvo Vitikainen. The type specimen was collected from open grassland between Gumum and Sape villages (Morobe Province), where it was found growing on sand. The species epithet granulosa refers to its characteristic granulose margin.
Parmotrema gardneri (C.W. Dodge) Sérus. 1984
fungi species in the parmeliaceae family
Parmotrema gardneri is a species of foliose lichen in the family Parmeliaceae. It was first formally described in 1955 by Carroll William Dodge as Parmelia gardneri, from specimens collected in Brazil. Emmanuël Sérusiaux transferred it to the genus Parmotrema in 1984. In addition to South America, it is also found in Africa, Asia, and North America.
