Halegrapha
Halegrapha is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Graphidaceae. It has nine species.[1] The genus was circumscribed in 2011 by Eimy Rivas Plata and Robert Lücking, with Halegrapha chimaera assigned as the type species. The generic name honors American lichenologist Mason Hale.[2]
