The Arthoniaceae are a family of lichenized, lichenicolous and saprobic fungi in the order Arthoniales.[1] The Arthoniaceae is the largest family of Arthoniales, with around 800 species.[2] Most species in Arthoniaceae belong in Arthonia which is the largest genus with 500 species.[3] The second and third largest genus is Arthothelium with 80 species, and Cryptothecia with 60 species.[4]

Arthonia is the type genus of Arthoniaceae, and it is known to be a polyphyletic and paraphyletic genus.[5] The process of splitting Arthonia into monophyletic groups is an ongoing process. In order to make Arthonia monophyletic, several genera have been described or resurrected.[6]

Transcription

Distribution

The species in Arthoniaceae have a worldwide distribution, but are especially prevalent in tropical areas with a Mediterranean climate.[1] They are known from arctic to tropical latitudes, as well as variating altitudes from sea level to alpine regions, distributed in both humid forests and dry habitats.[6]

Ecology

Collectively, the family have a highly variable ecology with lichenized, lichenicolous and saprobic fungi.[1] The majority of species are lichenized with a photobiont from Trentepohliaceae and a few species in Arthonia are lichenized with a photobiont from Chlorococcaleae. They grow on leaves, bark, bryophytes, and rocks.[7] Other species are lichenicolous (growing on other lichens), and a few species are known to be saprobic.[4]

History

The family was circumscribed by Heinrich Gottlieb Ludwig Reichenbach in 1841.[1]

Genera

Herbarium specimen of Arthonia radiata (magnified 40x) showing roughly star-shaped clusters of ascomata. Found growing on the bark of red oak.

As of March 2021, Species Fungorum accepts 25 genera and 392 species in the family Arthoniaceae.[8] This is a list of the genera in the Arthoniaceae based on a 2020 review and summary of fungal classification by Wijayawardene and colleagues.[9] Following the genus name is the taxonomic authority (those who first circumscribed the genus; standardized author abbreviations are used), year of publication, and the number of species:

  • Amazonomyces Bat. (1964) – 2 spp.
  • Arthonia Ach. (1806) – ca. 50 + ca. 300 orphaned spp.
  • Arthothelium A.Massal. (1852) – 10 + ca. 100 orphaned spp.
  • Briancoppinsia Diederich, Ertz, Lawrey & van den Boom (2012) – 1 sp.
  • Coniangium Fr. (1821) – 4 spp.
  • Coniarthonia Grube (2001) – 12 spp.
  • Coniocarpon DC. (1805) – 6 spp.
  • Crypthonia Frisch & G.Thor (2010) – 16 spp.
  • Cryptophaea Van den Broeck & Ertz (2016) – 1 spp.
  • Cryptothecia Stirt. (1876) – ca. 65
  • Eremothecella Syd. & P.Syd. (1917) – 8 spp.
  • Glomerulophoron Frisch, Ertz & G.Thor (2015) – 2 spp.
  • Helicobolomyces Matzer (1995) – 2 spp.
  • Herpothallon Tobler (1937) – ca. 50
  • Inoderma (Ach.) Gray (1821) – 4 spp.
  • Leprantha Dufour ex Körb. (1855) – 1 sp.
  • Myriostigma Kremp. (1874) – 7 spp.
  • Pachnolepia A.Massal. (1855) –1 sp.
  • Reichlingia Diederich & Scheid. (1996) – 4 spp.
  • Snippocia Ertz, Kukwa & Sanderson (2018) – 1 sp.
  • Sporodophoron Frisch (2015) – 4 spp.
  • Staurospora Grube (2018) – 1 sp.
  • Stirtonia A.L.Sm. (1926) – ca. 25 spp.
  • Tylophoron Nyl. (1862) – 11 spp.
