Arctomia

Arctomia is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Arctomiaceae.[2] The genus was originally circumscribed by Theodor Magnus Fries in 1861. Arctomia has a circumpolar distribution.[3]

Synonyms[1]

Species
  • Arctomia delicatula Th.Fr. (1861)
  • Arctomia papuanorum (Degel.) Otálora & Wedin (2013)
  • Arctomia teretiuscula P.M.Jørg. (2003)[3] – China
  • Arctomia uviformis (Hue) Otálora & Wedin (2013)

Molecular phylogenetic evidence revealed inappropriate classifications for two species once placed in this genus, A. insignis (P.M.Jørg. & Tønsberg) Ertz and A. borbonica Magain & Sérus.; they were formally transferred to the genus Gabura in 2020. Arctomia fascicularis (L.) Otálora & Wedin (2013) was confirmed to belong to Gabura,[4] a generic placement originally proposed by Per Magnus Jørgensen in 2014.[5]
