Lecanora Muralis
''Lecanora muralis'' ''(Protoparmeliopsis muralis)'' is a waxy-looking, pale yellowish-green crustose lichen, crustose lichen that usually grows in rosette (botany), rosettes radiating from a center (placoidiod, placodioid) filled with disc-like yellowish-tan fruiting bodies (apothecia).Field Guide to California Lichens, Stephen Sharnoff, Yale University Press, 2014, , page 279 It grows all over the world.Lichen Flora of the Greater Sonoran Desert Region. Vol 2, Nash, T.H., Ryan, B.D., Gries, C., Bugartz, F., (eds.) 2001./ref> It is extremely variable in its characteristics as a single taxon, and may represent a complex of species. The fruiting body parts have rims of tissue similar to that of the main nonfruiting body (thallus), which is called being lecanorine. It is paler and greener than ''Lecanora mellea, L. mellea'', and more yellow than ''Lecanora sierra, L. sierrae''. In California, it may be the most common member of the ''Lecanora'' genus found growing on rocks (saxicolou ...

Psilolechiaceae
''Psilolechia'' is a genus of four species of crustose lichens. It is the only member of Psilolechiaceae, a family (biology), family that was created in 2014 to contain this genus. Taxonomy The genus ''Psilolechia'' was established by Abramo Bartolommeo Massalongo in 1860. Formerly classified in the family Pilocarpaceae, molecular phylogenetic analysis showed that ''Psilolechia'' represented a distinct Lineage (evolution), lineage that deserved placement at the familial level, the Psilolechiaceae, which was formally circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed in 2014. This arrangement was accepted in later large-scale updates of fungal classification. Psilolechiaceae is in the order Lecanorales, in the suborder Sphaerophorineae, which also includes the families Pilocarpaceae, Psoraceae, and Ramalinaceae. Description Psilolechiaceae is a monogeneric family of crustose lichens with effuse, ecorticate (lacking a cortex (botany), cortex), wikt:leprose, leprose thalli formed by goniocys ...
