Heteroplacidium
''Heteroplacidium'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Verrucariaceae. The genus was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed by Austrian lichenologist Othmar Breuss in 1996 with ''Heteroplacidium imbricatum'' assigned as the type species. It was proposed as a segregate of ''Catapyrenium''. Other morphology (biology), morphologically similar genera are ''Neocatapyrenium'', ''Placidium'', and ''Scleropyrenium'', although molecular phylogenetic analyses indicate that they are independent monophyletic lineage (evolution), lineages within the Verrucariaceae. Most ''Heteroplacidium'' species are autonomous lichens, generally crustose lichen, crustose and areolate. Four species in the genus are obligate parasites or facultative parasite, facultatively lichenicolous fungus, lichenicolous – ''H. compactum'', ''H. fusculum'', ''H. transmutans'', and ''H. zamenhofianum''.
