Roccellaceae
The Roccellaceae are a family of fungi in the order Arthoniomycetes. Most taxa are lichenized with green algae, although some are lichenicolous, growing on other lichens. Genera , Species Fungorum (in the Catalogue of Life) accepts 47 genera and 266 species in family Roccellaceae. *'' Ancistrosporella'' – 3 spp. *'' Austrographa'' – 3 spp. *'' Austroroccella'' – 1 sp. *'' Baidera'' – 1 sp. *'' Chiodecton'' – ca. 22 spp. *'' Cresponea'' – 21 spp. *'' Crocellina'' – 1 sp. *'' Dendrographa'' – 7 spp. *'' Dichosporidium'' – 8 spp. *'' Diplogramma'' – 1 spp. *'' Dirina'' – 13 spp. *'' Dirinastrum'' – 2 spp. *'' Diromma'' – 1 sp. *'' Enterodictyon'' – 2 spp. * *'' Enterographa'' – (ca. 30 and 25 orphaned) *'' Erythrodecton'' – 3 spp. *'' Feigeana'' – 1 sp. *'' Follmanniella'' – 1 sp. *'' Gorgadesia'' – 1 sp. *'' Graphidastra'' – 4 spp. *'' Gyrographa'' – 3 spp. *'' Gyronactis'' – 2 spp. *'' Halographis'' – 1 sp. ...

Fungi
A fungus ( : fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as a kingdom, separately from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which by one traditional classification include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Fungi do not photosynthesize. Growth is their means of mobility, except for spores (a few of which are flagellated), which may travel through the air or water. Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems. These and other differences place fungi in a single group of related organisms, named the ''Eumycota'' (''t ...
