Pyrrhospora Varians
''Pyrrhospora'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Lecanoraceae. The genus was circumscribed by German lichenologist Gustav Wilhelm Körber in 1855, with ''Pyrrhospora quernea'' assigned as the type species. Species *''Pyrrhospora bhutanensis'' *''Pyrrhospora chlororphnia'' *''Pyrrhospora endaurantia'' *''Pyrrhospora fuscisidiata'' *''Pyrrhospora luminescens'' *''Pyrrhospora palmicola'' – Seychelles *''Pyrrhospora quernea'' *''Pyrrhospora rubiginans'' Several species that were once classified in ''Pyrrhospora'' have since been transferred to the genus ''Ramboldia''. These include: *''Pyrrhospora amagiensis'' (now ''Ramboldia amagiensis'') *''Pyrrhospora arandensis'' (now ''Ramboldia arandensis'') *''Pyrrhospora aurantiaca'' (now ''Ramboldia aurantiaca'') *''Pyrrhospora aurea'' (now ''Ramboldia aurea'') *''Pyrrhospora bullata'' (now ''Ramboldia bullata'') *''Pyrrhospora cinnabarina'' (now ''Ramboldia cinnabarina'') *''Pyrrhospora elabens'' (now ''R ...

Gustav Wilhelm Körber
Gustav Wilhelm Körber (10 January 1817, Hirschberg – 27 January 1885, Breslau) was a German lichenologist. He studied natural sciences in Breslau and Berlin, obtaining his PhD in 1839 with the thesis ''De gonidiis lichenum''. After graduation, he served as an instructor at the "Elisabethanum" in Breslau, and from 1862, worked as a private teacher. In 1873 he became an associate professor at the University of Breslau.JSTOR Global Plants (biography) Best known for his investigations of lichen species native to Silesia, he also examined specimens found in central and southeastern Europe as well as lichen collected from |
Ramboldia
''Ramboldia'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Ramboldiaceae. The genus was circumscribed in 1994 by Gintaras Kantvilas and John Alan Elix. It was emended in 2008 by the inclusion of ''Pyrrhospora'' species containing the anthraquinone russulone in their apothecia and having a prosoplectenchymatous exciple. The family Ramboldiaceae was circumscribed in 2014 to contain the genus. The genus name of ''Ramboldia'' is in honour of Gerhard Walter Rambold (b.1956), a German botanist (Lichenology and Mycology). He was also interested in Zoology and was a professor at Munich and Bayreuth. He was a colleague of the authors, Kantvilas and Elix. Species *'' Ramboldia amagiensis'' (2008) *''Ramboldia amarkantakana'' (2009) *'' Ramboldia arandensis'' (2008) *'' Ramboldia atromarginata'' (2016) *''Ramboldia aurantiaca'' (2008) *''Ramboldia aurea'' (2008) *''Ramboldia blastidiata'' (2007) *''Ramboldia blochiana'' (2011) – North America, Central America, South Amer ...
