Vigneronia
''Vigneronia'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Roccellaceae. It has five species. The genus was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed in 2014 by Damien Ernst, with ''Vigneronia spieri'' assigned as the type species. This species, originally species description, described as ''Schismatomma spieri'' from collections made in the Galápagos Islands, has since been recorded from mainland Ecuador and the Antilles (Curaçao). The genus is named after Ernst's wife, Nathalie Vigneron, who accompanied him on collecting trips. ''Vigneronia'' lichens are crustose lichen, crustose, and have a smooth, thin, thallus lacking a cortex (botany), cortex. The photobiont partner is Trentepohlia (alga), trentepohlioid. Lichen products identified from members of the genus include roccellic acid, erythrin, and gyrophoric acid. The ascomata are in the form of elongated, measuring 0.5–4 by 0.3–1 mm in diameter.
