Diorygma

About

Diorygma is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Graphidaceae. The genus was circumscribed by Franz Gerhard Eschweiler in 1824. Species of the genus are widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. These lichens form paint-like crusts on bark and rock that range from chalky white to light green, with elongated, pencil-like slits containing their spores that may flex and branch across the surface. The genus was established in 1824 for tropical script lichens with large, many-celled spores, but molecular studies in the 2000s and 2010s expanded it significantly by transferring species from other genera and revealing new diversity.
