Anaptychia nevadensis is a species of foliose lichen in the family Physciaceae. It was described in 2022 from the north-western Great Basin of the western United States. It is an abundantly fertile, soredia-lacking member of section Protoanaptychia and differs from the Eurasian A. desertorum in having only scant whitish pruina (typically restricted to the lobe tips), longer ascospores on average, and frequent production of variolaric acid.

Pulvinora pringlei (also known by its former name Lecanora pringlei) is a species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling) crustose lichen in the family Lecanoraceae. It has a distinctive cushion-forming thallus (lichen body) and black apothecia (fruiting bodies) that become strongly domed as they mature. The species is known from North America.

Capronia harrisiana is a lichenicolous fungus on the tripartite foliose lichen Crocodia aurata. Although the host species is widespread in many areas of the world, no species of Capronia has previously been reported from Crocodia aurata, and Capronia harrisiana appears to be endemic to the southern Appalachian Mountains in southeastern North America. The new species is characterized by 50–120 μm wide ascomata, 40–95 μm long setae, (1–)3-septate, pale brown, 11.9–15.7 × 4.4–5.8 μm ascospores, and an I+ red hymenium.
