Trypetheliopsis
Trypetheliopsis is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Monoblastiaceae. It contains eight species. The genus grows as a thin crust on tree bark, typically in tropical and subtropical regions, and is recognised by its flask-shaped fruiting bodies that are embedded within raised, crusty structures on the lichen's surface. Species in this genus were largely forgotten by lichenologists for several decades until 2009, when researchers studying Japanese herbarium specimens "resurrected" the group by reclassifying several related lichens within it.

Myelochroa
Myelochroa is a genus of foliose lichens in the family Parmeliaceae. They are commonly known as axil-bristle lichens. It was created in 1987 to contain species formerly placed in genus Parmelina that had a yellow-orange medulla due to the presence of secalonic acids. Characteristics of the genus include tightly attached thalli with narrow lobes, cilia on the axils, and a rhizinate black lower surface. Chemical characteristics are the production of zeorin and related triterpenoids in the medulla. Myelochroa contains about 30 species, most of which grow on bark. The genus has centres of distribu
