List Of Caloplaca Species
This is a list of species in the lichen genus '' Caloplaca''. Although there were estimated to be more than 500 species in 2008, the family Teloschistaceae has undergone major revisions since then. Several molecular phylogenetic studies have been published that have established a phylogenetic framework to more appropriately classify lichens that were previously grouped in ''Caloplaca''. , Species Fungorum accepts 202 species of ''Caloplaca''.

Lichen
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

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 s. They may have tiny, leafless branches (); flat leaf-like structures (



Caloplaca Almbornii
''Caloplaca'' is a lichen genus comprising a number of distinct species. Members of the genus are commonly called firedot lichen, jewel lichen.Field Guide to California Lichens, Stephen Sharnoff, Yale University Press, 2014, gold lichens, "orange lichens", but they are not always orange, as in the case of '' C. albovariegata''. The distribution of this lichen genus is worldwide, extending from Antarctica to the high Arctic. It includes a portion of northern North America and the Russian High Arctic. There are about thirty species of ''Caloplaca'' in the flora of the British Isles. An example species in this genus is ''Caloplaca saxicola'', a lichen with worldwide distribution including the Antarctic continent, Europe and northern North America including the northern reaches of the Canadian boreal forests. A new species of ''Caloplaca'', '' C. obamae'', the first species to be named in honor of Barack Obama, was discovered in 2007 on Santa Rosa Island in California and p ...

Caloplaca Bartlettii
''Caloplaca bartlettii'' is a species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling), crustose lichen in the family Teloschistaceae. It is found in Tasmania and New Zealand, where it grows on coastal rock outcrops. Taxonomy The lichen was formally described as a new species in 2009 by lichenologists Sergey Kondratyuk and Ingvar Kärnefelt. The type specimen was collected from Kapowairua, a locality at the eastern end of Spirits Bay (North Island The North Island, also officially named Te Ika-a-Māui, is one of the two main islands of New Zealand, separated from the larger but much less populous South Island by the Cook Strait. The island's area is , making it the world's 14th-largest ...), where it was found growing on coastal rocks above sea level. The species epithet honours New Zealand botanist John Bartlett, who collected the type species in 1984. Description The crustose, thallus is wide (although neighbouring lichens will often coalesce to form larger patches), with a greenish- ...

Caloplaca Astonii
''Caloplaca astonii'' is a rare species of crustose lichen in the family Teloschistaceae. Described in 2007, is known for its distinct appearance and very limited distribution in Australia. The lichen has a thin thallus measuring 3–8 mm wide, with confluent spots that are thicker and cracked in the centre, showing a dull rose-orange or dull brown-orange colour, and apothecia that transition from being immersed in the thallus to raised above it, revealing a bright reddish-brown . Taxonomy The lichen was first formally described in 2007 by lichenologists Sergey Kondratyuk and Ingvar Kärnefelt. The type material was found in Northwest New South Wales about south-southwest of Kayrunners and roughly west of White Cliffs. In this location, a glaring white quartz stone plain, it is common on stones. This species is akin to '' Caloplaca montisfracti'', but is distinguished by its apothecia with a very thin hymenium and small with attenuated tips. Among Australian ''Calop ...

Caloplaca Aseptatospora
''Caloplaca aseptatospora'' is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), crustose lichen in the family Teloschistaceae. Found in Australia, it was formally described as a new species in 2009 by lichenologists Sergey Kondratyuk and Ingvar Kärnefelt. The type specimen, collected from Coochiemudlo Island (Moreton Bay) in 1982 by Rex Filson, was found growing on the base of a sheltered tree trunk. The species epithet alludes to its main diagnostic –largely immature, non-septate spores. ''Caloplaca aseptatospora'' is only known to occur in a few localities in Queensland. Description The crustose thallus of ''Caloplaca aseptatospora'' forms patches up to across, whitish-grey to dark grey in colour. The surface has numerous granular isidia and many or apothecia, with yellowish . The apothecia measure 0.4–0.9 mm in dimeter and are about 0.2 mm thick. The ascospores are usually immature and lacking septa; mature spores with a septum are rare. Lichen products that oc ...
