Chrysothrix Frischii
''Chrysothrix'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Chrysothricaceae. They are commonly called gold dust lichens or sulfur dust lichens,Field Guide to California Lichens, Stephen Sharnoff, Yale University Press, 2014, because they are bright yellow to greenish-yellow, sometimes flecked with orange, and composed entirely of powdery soredia.Brodo, I. M., S. D. Sharnoff, and S. Sharnoff. 2001. Lichens of North America. Yale University Press: New Haven. Apothecia are never present in North American specimens. They grow on bark or rocks, generally in shaded habitats. They can sometimes be mistaken for sterile specimens of '' Chaenotheca'', which usually has pinhead apothecia on tiny stalks, or ''Psilolechia'', which usually has small, bright yellow apothecia. ''Chrysothrix chlorina'' was traditionally used as a brown dye for wool in Scandinavia. Uphof, J. C. T. 1959. Dictionary of Economic Plants. Hafner Publishing Co.: New York.

Psilolechia
''Psilolechia'' is a genus of four species of crustose lichens. It is the only member of Psilolechiaceae, a family that was created in 2014 to contain this genus. Taxonomy The genus ''Psilolechia'' was established by Abramo Bartolommeo Massalongo in 1860. Formerly classified in the family Pilocarpaceae, molecular phylogenetic analysis showed that ''Psilolechia'' represented a distinct lineage that deserved placement at the familial level, the Psilolechiaceae, which was formally circumscribed in 2014. This arrangement was accepted in later large-scale updates of fungal classification. Psilolechiaceae is in the order Lecanorales, in the suborder Sphaerophorineae, which also includes the families Pilocarpaceae, Psoraceae, and Ramalinaceae. Description Psilolechiaceae is a monogeneric family of crustose lichens with effuse, ecorticate (lacking a cortex), leprose thalli formed by goniocysts (aggregations of photobiont cells surrounded by short-celled hyphae) containing ''Trebou ...

Chrysothrix Flavovirens
''Chrysothrix flavovirens'' is a species of crustose and corticolous (bark-dwelling) lichen in the family Chrysotrichaceae. It was formally described as a new species in 1994 by Tor Tønsberg as the sorediate counterpart of the common and widespread '' Chrysothrix candelaris''. The type specimen was collected from Kirkeøy, Norway, where it was found growing on ''Picea abies''. It has a pale greenish-yellow thallus that contains rhizocarpic acid. The lichen is widespread in Europe, and has also been recorded from Japan and North America. In the Atlantic and Mediterranean biogeographic regions of Portugal, it prefers to grow on the acidic bark of coastal conifer Conifers are a group of conifer cone, cone-bearing Spermatophyte, seed plants, a subset of gymnosperms.

Chrysothrix Bergeri
''Chrysothrix bergeri'' is a species of crustose lichen in the family Chrysotrichaceae. It is found in the southeastern United States and the Caribbean, where it grows as a bright yellow, powdery crust on the bark and wood of mostly hardwoods. Taxonomy ''Chrysothrix bergeri'' was formally described as a new species in 2020 by Scott LaGreca.The type specimen was originally collected in 1922 from Confianza Estate in Cuba. Although it had previously been mentioned in the scientific literature as an undescribed species, it had not been formally named. The distribution of the lichen extends from the southeastern United States, southwards to the Bahamas and Cuba, and eastwards to Bermuda. Although found mostly on hardwoods (usually oak), other recorded substrates include ''Casuarina equisetifolia'', ''Prunus caroliniana'', ''Suriana maritima'', ''Juniperus'', ''Pinus'', and ''Taxodium''.

Type Species
In zoological nomenclature, a type species (''species typica'') is the species name with which the name of a genus or subgenus is considered to be permanently taxonomically associated, i.e., the species that contains the biological type specimen(s). Article 67.1 A similar concept is used for suprageneric groups and called a type genus. In botanical nomenclature, these terms have no formal standing under the code of nomenclature, but are sometimes borrowed from zoological nomenclature. In botany, the type of a genus name is a specimen (or, rarely, an illustration) which is also the type of a species name. The species name that has that type can also be referred to as the type of the genus name. Names of genus and family ranks, the various subdivisions of those ranks, and some higher-rank names based on genus names, have such types.
