Gypsoplaca
Genus of lichens
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gypsoplacaceae is a family of lichenized fungi in the order Lecanorales. This is a monotypic family, containing the single genus Gypsoplaca, which has a widespread distribution.[1] The family and genus were described as new in 1990 by Norwegian lichenologist Einar Timdal. Gypsoplaca originally contained only the type species, Gypsoplaca macrophylla,[2] but four species were added to the genus in 2018.[3]
