Aderkomyces
Sign in to saveAderkomyces is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Gomphillaceae. Originally established in 1961 for a single species from Brazil, the genus was later expanded to include many species previously classified in the related genus Tricharia, all sharing distinctive white bristle-like structures and flattened fruiting bodies. Recent molecular studies suggest that Aderkomyces as currently defined may not represent a natural evolutionary group, leading to ongoing reclassification of many species into other genera.
