Candelinella
''Candelinella'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Candelariaceae. It contains two species of crustose lichens. It is visually similar to the genus '' Candelina'' but has unique features, including a distinct thallus and unique spore structures. It was established by Sergey Kondratyuk in 2020, with '' Candelinella makarevichiae'' assigned as the type species. The genus is distinguished by the small, crustose thallus that ranges from a to or texture, and the to 1-septate, narrowly ellipsoid to oblong ascospores. Its lack of a lower and medulla (lichenology), medulla further sets it apart from ''Candelina''. Taxonomy The genus ''Candelinella'' was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed by Ukrainian lichenologist Sergey Kondratyuk in 2020, with ''Candelinella makarevichiae'' assigned as the type species. Its name reflects its similarities to the genus '' Candelina'', based on combined multigene and internal transcribed spacer, nuclear ribosomal DNA internal t ...
