About
Xenonectriella nephromatis is a little-known species of lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungus in the family Nectriaceae. Found in Alaska, it was described as a species new to science in 2020 by Sergio Pérez-Ortega. The type specimen was discovered in the Hoonah–Angoon Census Area in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, where it was growing on a Nephroma lichen. The specific epithet alludes to this host lichen.
