Roccellographa

Roccellographa is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Roccellographaceae. The genus was circumscribed by Austrian lichenologist Julius Steiner in 1902, with Roccellographa cretacea assigned as the type, and at that time, the only species. Three additional species have since been transferred to the genus from other genera.
