The genus was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed by Aino Marjatta Henssen in Acta Univ. Upsal., Symb. Bot. Upsal. vol.32 (1) on page 76 in 1997. The genus name of ''Santessoniella'' is in honour of Rolf Santesson (1916–2013), who was a Swedish lichenologist and university lecturer.

Rockefellera Crossophylla
''Rockefellera'' is a fungal genus in the family Pannariaceae. It is a monotypic genus, containing the single species ''Rockefellera crossophylla''. The genus was circumscribed by James Lendemer and Erin Tripp in 2017. The generic name honors the Rockefeller family, "for their century-long support of North American conservation efforts, particularly with respect to national parks." ''Rockefellera crossophylla'' was originally described by American lichenologist Edward Tuckerman as ''Pannaria crossophylla'', based on specimens he collected in New England. He had previously mentioned the species in an 1859 publication by William Nylander, but this was not a validly published name as a type was not indicated. Because of a dearth of records of the lichen from North America after its initial description, Per Magnus Jørgensen suggested in 2000 that it was potentially extinct in the wild on that continent. Since then several populations have been reported from the Canadian M ...

Pannariaceae
The Pannariaceae are a family of lichens in the order Peltigerales (suborder Collematineae). Species from this family have a widespread distribution, but are especially prevalent in southern temperate regions. Genera According to a recent (2020) estimate, the family contains 27 genera and about 360 species. The following list indicates the genus name, the taxonomic authority, year of publication, and the number of species: *'' Atrophysma'' – 1 sp. *''Austrella'' – 3 spp. *'' Austroparmeliella'' – 5 spp. *''Degelia'' – 16 spp. *''Erioderma'' – 32 spp. *'' Fuscoderma'' – 5 spp. *'' Fuscopannaria'' – 58 spp. *''Kroswia'' – 4 spp. *'' Gibbosporina'' – 13 spp. *''Homothecium'' – 4 spp. *'' Joergensenia'' – 1 sp. *'' Leciophysma'' – 2 spp. *''Leightoniella'' – 1 sp. *''Leioderma'' – 7 spp. *'' Lepidocollema'' – 22 spp. *'' Leptogidium'' – 3 spp. *'' Nebularia'' – 2 spp. *'' Nevesia'' – 1 sp. *''Pannaria'' – ca. 40 spp. *''Parme ...

Rolf Santesson
Rolf Santesson (1916–2013) was a Swedish lichenologist and university lecturer. He was awarded the Acharius Medal in 1992 for his lifetime contributions to lichenology. Early life and education Santesson was born in 1916 in Trollhättan, Sweden. He was already collecting lichens as a student, investigating the lichen flora of the table mountains of Halleberg and Hunneberg near his home. He entered the University of Uppsala in the 1930s to study botany. It was here he met the flamboyant Professor of Plant Ecology and lichen taxonomist Gustaf Einar Du Rietz, with whom he undertook studies on crustose lichens found on shoreline rocks of Swedish lakes. This work led to a lifelong interest in marine lichens. He earned a B.Sc. in 1938, followed by an M.Sc. in 1939. That same year, joined by zoologist Christian Olrog, Santesson embarked on what was supposed to be an eight-month research excursion in Patagonia (southern South America). Because of the outbreak of war, which made sea ...

Lichen Genera
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 ...

Peltigerales
Peltigerales is an order of lichen-forming fungi belonging to the class Lecanoromycetes in the division Ascomycota. The taxonomy of the group has seen numerous changes; it was formerly often treated as a suborder of the order Lecanorales. It contains two suborders, eight families and about 45 genera such as '' Lobaria'' and '' Peltigera''. The fungi form lichens in a symbiotic relationship with one or two photosynthetic partners which may be a cyanobacterium such as '' Nostoc'' or a green alga such as ''Coccomyxa''. The majority of species contain just a cyanobacterium, a smaller number have both a cyanobacterium and a green alga while only a few species have just a green alga. The thallus of the lichen may be foliose (leafy), subfruticose (somewhat shrubby) or granular-squamulose (scaly). The thallus attaches to a surface by means of small root-like rhizines. In some species, the thallus may vary in appearance depending on whether it contains a cyanobacterium or a green ...

Psoroma Polychidioides
''Psoroma'' is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Pannariaceae. The genus was circumscribed by French botanist André Michaux in 1803. The widespread genus contains an estimated 58 species, most of which are found in south temperate regions. Some species formerly in ''Psoroma'' were transferred to the new genera '' Psorophorus'' and '' Xanthopsoroma'' in 2010. The genus '' Joergensenia'' was erected in 2008 to contain the species formerly known as ''Psoroma cephalodinum''. Species *''Psoroma absconditum'' *''Psoroma asperellum'' *''Psoroma caliginosum'' *''Psoroma capense'' – South Africa *''Psoroma cinnamomeum'' *''Psoroma cyanosorediatum'' *''Psoroma echinaceum'' *''Psoroma esterhuyseniae'' – South Africa *''Psoroma fruticulosum'' *''Psoroma geminatum'' *''Psoroma hypnorum'' *''Psoroma multifidum'' *''Psoroma papuana'' *''Psoroma pholidotoides'' *''Psoroma saccharatum ''Psoroma'' is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Pannariaceae.
