Gymnographopsis is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Redonographaceae.

[2] It was circumscribed by American botanist, mycologist, and lichenologist Carroll William Dodge in 1967, with Gymnographopsis chilena assigned as the type species.

[5][6][7] Molecular clock analysis indicates that Redonographoideae diverged from Graphidoideae subfamily about 132 million years ago (Ma) in the Early Cretaceous age.

[5] However, Kraichak et al. in 2018,[8] ranked Graphidales as a separate order based on a temporal approach, and accepted five separate families; Diploschistaceae, Fissurinaceae, Gomphillaceae, Graphidaceae and Thelotremataceae.

[9][10] Wijayawardene et al. 2020 agreed but also added family Redonographaceae to the order, which included Gymnographopsis.
