Anisomeridium lateriticum is a species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling) lichen in the family Monoblastiaceae.[1] Found in Brazil, it was formally described as a new species in 2013 by lichenologists André Aptroot and Marcela Cáceres. The type specimen was collected by the authors in Fazenda São Francisco north of Porto Velho (Rondônia), where it was found growing on lateritic rock in a primary rainforest.[2]
