Pertusaria
''Pertusaria'' is a large genus of warty crustose lichens in the Pertusariaceae family.Field Guide to California Lichens, Stephen Sharnoff, Yale University Press, 2014, The fruiting bodies are usually modified apothecia that immersed in warts on the main body (thallus) with small holes for the spores to emerge, similar to ostioles, or are fully above and lecanorine (spore bearing discs surrounded by a ring of tissue similar to the tissue of the thallus. Members of the genus are commonly called wart lichens. The widespread genus contains over 500 species. Classification in the large genus relies heavily on thallus chemistry to distinguish and classify species, some of which differ only in the presence or absence of a single secondary chemical. Lichexanthone, norlichexanthone, and their chlorinated derivatives are common in this genus. Selected species * '' Pertusaria amara'' * '' Pertusaria californica'' *''Pertusaria diluta'' * '' Pertusaria favicunda'' * ''Pertusaria ...

Pertusariaceae
The Pertusariaceae are a family of lichen-forming fungi in the order Pertusariales. Taxonomy The family was formally circumscribed by German lichenologist Gustav Wilhelm Körber in 1846. It contained the genera ''Pertusaria'' and '' Ochrolechia'' until ''Pertusaria'' was shown to be polyphyletic in a 2006 publication. The family Ochrolechiaceae was created to contain ''Ochrolechia''. Genera , Species Fungorum includes 6 genera and 379 species in the Pertusariaceae. *'' Lepra'' – 81 spp. *'' Loxosporopsis'' – 1 sp. *''Pertusaria'' – ca. 300 spp. *'' Phyllophiale'' – 1 sp. *'' Thamnochrolechia'' – 1 sp. *''Verseghya ''Verseghya'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Pertusariaceae. It has two species. The genus was circumscribed in 2016 by lichenologists Sergey Kondratyuk, Laszlo Lőkös, and Jae-Seoun Hur, with '' Verseghya klarae'' assigned ...'' – 2 spp. References Pertusariales Lichen families Lecanoromycetes families Taxa named ...
