Rusavskia
''Rusavskia'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Teloschistaceae. It has 12 species. It is a member of the subfamily Xanthorioideae. The thallus of ''Rusavskia'' is characterized by its foliose lichen, foliose (leaf-like) structure with distinct and typically narrow that curve outwards. Taxonomy The genus ''Rusavskia'' was proposed by lichenologists Sergey Kondratyuk and Ingvar Kärnefelt in 2003, with ''Rusavskia elegans'' assigned as the type species. The initial circumscription (taxonomy), circumscription of the genus relied predominantly on an evaluation of morphology (biology), morphological, anatomical and chemical characteristics, with a notable absence of molecular phylogenetic analysis. For this reason, the reception of the ''Rusavskia'' by lichenologists was initially met with cautious appraisal. As several molecular studies in the subsequent years showed, the ''Rusavskia elegans''-group occupies a separate monophyletic branch in the Teloschistaceae; t ...
