Lobariella pallida is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), foliose lichen in the family Peltigeraceae. It was first formally described in 1822 by English botanist William Jackson Hooker, as a member of the genus Sticta. Bibiana Moncada and Robert Lücking transferred it to the genus Lobariella in 2011. The lichen occurs in páramo regions of Central and South America, where it grows on twigs and thin stems of shrubs and small trees. It is the most common species in its genus. Although it typically grows in association with other lichens, its quite loose attachment to its substrate means it

Dictyonema giganteum is a species of lichen-forming fungus in the family Hygrophoraceae. It is a basidiolichen—its fungal partner belongs to the Basidiomycota rather than the more typical Ascomycota. The species was discovered and described in 2014 from specimens collected in the cloud forests of Colombia's eastern Andes. As its name suggests, it forms unusually large, shelf-like lobes that can reach up to 12 cm (4.7 in) across. The lichen is covered with dense white hairs that give it a frosted appearance and is known only from a small area of sub-montane cloud forest in Casanare Department,

Dendriscosticta is a genus of foliose lichens in the family Peltigeraceae. The genus contains ten species that grow primarily on tree bark and branches across much of the Northern Hemisphere. Species are divided into two main groups based on their chemistry and geography: an Eastern Hemisphere lineage that produces gyrophoric acid and a mostly Western Hemisphere lineage that typically lacks this compound. These lichens often develop small outgrowths (isidia or phyllidia) on their upper surface and can form special structures harbouring cyanobacteria.

The lichen occurs at elevations above 3,000 m (9,800 ft) in the northern Andes of Colombia and Ecuador, where it grows in wet páramo as an epiphyte on shrub twigs. It is closely related to a complex of species around Cora minor.

Cora arachnodavidea is a species of basidiolichen in the family Hygrophoraceae. It was formally described as a new species in 2016 by Bibiana Moncada, Manuela Dal Forno, and Robert Lücking. The specific epithet alludes to the arachnoid surface of the thallus, and also refers to mycologist David Leslie Hawksworth. The lichen is only known to occur in the páramo of Guasca in Colombia, where it grows on the ground in sheltered places between plants and bryophytes.

Cora applanata is a species of basidiolichen in the family Hygrophoraceae. It was formally described as a new species in 2016 by Bibiana Moncada, Edier Soto-Medina, and Robert Lücking. The specific epithet refers to its applanate (flattened) thallus. The lichen is widely distributed in tropical montane areas of the northern Andes, where it grows on soil along open road banks and on land slides.

Cora accipiter is a species of basidiolichen in the family Hygrophoraceae. It was formally described as a new species in 2016 by Bibiana Moncada, Santiago Madriñán, and Robert Lücking. The specific epithet, which refers to hawks of the genus Accipiter, alludes to the wing-shaped lobes of the lichen, and also honours mycologist David Leslie Hawksworth. The lichen is found in South America, where it grows in the wet páramo regions of the northern Andes. Closely related species include C. cyphellifera and C. arachnoidea.
