Fauriea is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Teloschistaceae.[1] The genus, which contains seven species,[2] is a member of the subfamily Caloplacoideae.
Characteristics of the genus Fauriea include its crustose, continuous grey to whitish-grey thallus and Lecanora-type apothecia (fruiting structures) with a brown or dark brown disc. The thallus has a sleek, continuous structure that is not areolate, with greyish colours. The apothecia, which initially appear submerged within the thallus, later partially emerge or can be seen in structures called thalline warts.
