Capronia normandinae is a species of lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungus in the family Herpotrichiellaceae.

[2] The fungus has been recorded from Papua New Guinea,[3] the Atlantic Ocean (Portugal, Madeira), Australasia (New Zealand), Europe (France, Ireland, Norway, Portugal, Spain, UK), and South America (Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador).

[2] A characteristic feature of Capronia normandinae is the black, hair-like structures on its surface called setose perithecia.

These spores look like they have many internal divisions because they contain tiny fat droplets (guttules) and special cell walls (distosepta).

Around the fungus's opening (the ostiole), there are simple (unbranched), unsegmented hair-like growths (setae).
