Palicella
Palicella is a genus of lichen in the family Lecanoraceae. It was circumscribed in 2014 to accommodate the type species, Palicella glaucopa (formerly placed in the genus Lecidea), and two closely related species, P. filamentosa and P. schizochromatica. Molecular analyses of these lichens revealed a monophyletic clade that is sister to representatives from two Lecanoraceae genera, Lecanora symmicta and Pyrrhospora quernea. Two additional species were transferred to Palicella from Lecanora in 2019.
