Poeltidea is a genus of lichenized fungi within the family Lecideaceae.
[1] It contains two species: Poeltidea perusta and Poeltidea inspersa.
The genus name of Poeltidea is in honour of Josef Poelt (1924-1995), who was a German-Austrian botanist (Bryology, Mycology and Lichenology) and was Professor of Systematic Botany at the Free University of Berlin in 1965.
[2] The genus was circumscribed by Hannes Hertel and Josef Hafellner in Nova Hedwigia Beih.
