Marchantiana
''Marchantiana'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Teloschistaceae. It contains seven species of corticolous lichen, corticolous (bark-dwelling), crustose lichens that occur in the Southern Hemisphere. Taxonomy Lichenologists Sergey Kondratyuk, Ingvar Kärnefelt, John Alan Elix, Arne Thell, and Jae-Seoun Hur circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed the genus ''Marchantiana'' in 2014, as part of a taxonomy (biology), taxonomic revision of the subfamily Caloplacoideae of the family Teloschistaceae. They designated ''Marchantiana occidentalis'' as its type species. Initially, the genus comprised six species, all native to the Southern Hemisphere, with all but one species from Australia. The genus was named in honour of the Australian botanist Neville Graeme Marchant, to acknowledge his extensive contributions to the flora of Western Australia. In their 2014 study, Kondratyuk and his team utilized mitochondrial DNA for molecular phylogenetics, molecular analysis. Th ...
