Gyalectales
''Gyalectales'' is an order of lichen-forming fungi in the class Lecanoromycetes. It contains 5 families, 15 genera and about 550 species. Taxonomy The Gyalectales were introduced in a 1974 publication by Aino Henssen and Martin Jahns, but not formally published until 1986 by David Hawksworth and Ove Eriksson. Phylogeny An early (2002) phylogenetics study showed that the order Ostropales, as was then circumscribed, was paraphyletic, and proposed that the Ostropales sensu lato included the Gyalectales and Trapeliaceae. Although they had traditionally been considered to be only distantly related, molecular studies suggested a much closer phylogenetic relationship. As a result, of the molecular data, Kauff and Lutzoni subsumed the Gyalectales into the Ostropales, as the latter name was published earlier (1932 vs. 1986). In 2018, Kraichak and colleagues used a recently developed "temporal phylogenetic" approach to identify temporal bands for specific taxonomic ranks. Based on this ...

Psathyrophlyctis
''Psathyrophlyctis'' is a genus of lichenized fungi in family Phlyctidaceae (order Gyalectales). The genus is monotypic In biology, a monotypic taxon is a taxonomic group (taxon) that contains only one immediately subordinate taxon. A monotypic species is one that does not include subspecies or smaller, infraspecific taxa. In the case of genera, the term "unispec ..., containing the single species ''Psathyrophlyctis serpentaria'', found in South Africa.

Phlyctis
''Phlyctis'' is a genus of lichenized fungi in the order Gyalectales, and the type genus of the family Phlyctidaceae. Members of the genus are commonly called blemished lichens. The genus was circumscribed by German lichenologist Julius von Flotow in 1850. The ''Dictionary of the Fungi'' (2008) estimated the widespread genus to contain 12 species, but several species have been described and added to the genus since then. Species *''Phlyctis agelaea'' *''Phlyctis argena'' *''Phlyctis boliviensis'' *''Phlyctis communis'' – India *''Phlyctis himalayensis'' *''Phlyctis karnatakana'' – India *''Phlyctis ludoviciensis'' *''Phlyctis lueckingii'' – Sri Lanka *''Phlyctis monosperma'' – India *''Phlyctis petraea'' *''Phlyctis psoromica'' *''Phlyctis sirindhorniae'' *''Phlyctis subagelaea'' – India *''Phlyctis subargena'' *''Phlyctis subhimalayensis'' – India *''Phlyctis subuncinata'' *''Phlyctis tolgensis ''Phlyctis'' is a genus of lichenized fungi in the o ...

Trichotheliaceae
Trichotheliaceae is a family of lichen-forming fungi in the order Gyalectales. The family was circumscribed by Friedrich von Schilling and Friedrich August Georg Bitter in 1927. In a recent (2018) molecular phylogenetic analysis, Trichotheliaceae was shown to be part of a monophyletic clade containing the families Coenogoniaceae, Gyalectaceae, Phlyctidaceae, and Sagiolechiaceae. Genera According to a recent (2022) survey of fungal classification, Trichotheliaceae contains eight genera and about 365 species. The following list indicates the genus name, the taxonomic authority, year of publication, and the number of species: *'' Clathroporina'' – ca. 25 *'' Flabelloporina'' – 1 sp. *'' Myeloconis'' – 4 spp. *''Porina ''Porina'' is a genus of lichens in the family Trichotheliaceae.

Coenogonium
''Coenogonium'' is a genus of crustose lichens in the monotypic family Coenogoniaceae. It has about 90 species. Most species are leaf-dwelling or grow on bark, although a few are known to grow on rocks under certain conditions, and some are restricted to growth on termite nests. The genus was circumscribed in 1820 by German naturalist Christian Gottfried Ehrenberg. ''Coenogonium'' has a worldwide distribution, with most species known from tropical areas. Most species grow in tropical rain forests in the shaded understorey. They typically inhabit tree trunks, branches, lianas, and leaves. Description Although members of ''Coenogonium'' are relatively easy to identify given its unique characteristics, identifying to species is more difficult due to the slight differences between them. The genus is characterized by biatorine (rarely zeorine), yellow to orange or brown apothecia with a paraplectenchymatous excipulum, partially amyloid hymenium (I+ blue then quickly sordid green ...

Lichen
A lichen ( , ) is a composite organism that arises from algae or cyanobacteria living among filaments of multiple fungi species in a mutualistic relationship.Introduction to Lichens – An Alliance between Kingdoms
. University of California Museum of Paleontology.
Lichens have properties different from those of their component organisms. They come in many colors, sizes, and forms and are sometimes plant-like, but are not plants. They may have tiny, leafless branches ( fruticose); flat leaf-like structures ( foliose); grow crust ...
