Heterocyphelium

Heterocyphelium is a lichen genus in the family Lecanographaceae.^[1] It was circumscribed by Finnish lichenologist Edvard August Vainio in 1927, with H. leucampyx assigned as the type species. The genus remained monotypic until a new species, H. triseptatum, was described in 2017 from collections made in Brazil.^[2]
