Polyblastidium Albicans
''Polyblastidium'' is a genus of foliose lichens in the family Physciaceae. It has 18 species. The genus was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed by German lichenologist Klaus Kalb in 2015, with ''Polyblastidium japonicum'' assigned as the type species. ''Polyblastidium'' is similar in morphology (biology), morphology to ''Heterodermia'', but its lower surface is cobweb-like in structure (''arachnoid''), and its ascospores are mostly 1-septum, septate with 1 to 3 sporoblastidia (small subsidiary cavities). It is this latter feature that is referenced in the genus name ''Polyblastidium'' (''poly'' = "many" + sporoblastidia). The genus contains several species that were formerly classified in the genus ''Anaptychia'' (section (botany), section ''Polyblastidium'' series (biology), series ''Polyblastidium'').

Klaus Kalb
Klaus Kalb (born 1942) is a German lichenologist and an authority on tropical lichens. Born in Nuremberg, he studied at the University of Erlangen–Nuremberg before pursuing a career that significantly advanced the field of lichenology, particularly in Brazil. Kalb's work in São Paulo from 1978 to 1981 led to a collaboration with Brazilian lichenologist Marcelo Pinto Marcelli, which is considered a model for non-commercial benefit-sharing in taxonomic research. He later became an associate professor at the University of Regensburg and is known for editing the exsiccata series ''Lichenes Neotropici''. Kalb's contributions to lichenology include over 120 scientific publications, the description of numerous new species, and the development of a substantial lichen collection. His work has been recognised through various honours, including four lichen genera and numerous species named after him, as well as a Festschrift published in 2007 to mark his retirement.

Polyblastidium Squamulosum
''Polyblastidium squamulosum'' is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), foliose lichen in the family Physciaceae. It is found in North America. Taxonomy The species was first scientifically described by the Swedish lichenologist Gunnar Degelius in 1941, who initially classified it in the genus ''Anaptychia''. William Culberson reclassified it in the genus ''Heterodermia'' in 1967. It was transferred to the newly circumscribed genus '' Polyblastidium'' in 2015 by Klaus Kalb Klaus Kalb (born 1942) is a German lichenologist and an authority on tropical lichens.
