Austromelanelixia

A. calva A. fuscosorediata A. glabratuloides A. piliferella A. subglabra Austromelanelixia is a genus of five species of foliose lichens in the family Parmeliaceae.

[3] Austromelanelixia appears to have been accepted as a valid genus by later lichenologists and has been included in recent updates of fungal classification.

[4][5][6] Austromelanelixia species have a foliose thallus with an upper surface that ranges in colour from olive-green to dark brown.

They grow on bark (rarely on rock) in eastern and southeastern Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand.

Austromelanelixia subglabra is also found in southern South America.
