Absconditella

Genus of fungi


Absconditella is a genus of lichenised fungi in the family Stictidaceae.[1] The genus was circumscribed in 1965 by Czech lichenologist Antonín Vězda, with Absconditella sphagnorum assigned as the type species. Absconditella is characterised by gyalectoid apothecia with a hymenium that is not amyloid, without a dark pigment and thalli containing green algae as photobionts.[2] The genus name means "hidden", a reference to the scant structure of the thallus and its small apothecia.[3]
