Biology:Haploloma
Haploloma is a fungal genus of unknown familial and ordinal placement in the class Lecanoromycetes.[1] It contains the single species Haploloma fraudulentum, a lichen.
Taxonomy
Both the genus and its sole species species were introduced to science by the Italian botanist Vittore Benedetto Antonio Trevisan de Saint-Léon in 1857. He described the genus as follows: "Apothecia scattered, distinct, circular, shaped like a small dish, [[Glossary of lichen terms#{{biology:{1}}}|{{Biology:{1}}}]] and attached, bordered by its own [[Glossary of lichen terms#{{biology:{1}}}|{{Biology:{1}}}]] cup-shaped margin, parasitising other lichens. The [[Glossary of lichen terms#{{biology:{1}}}|{{Biology:{1}}}]] is always open, situated on a simple, very black [[Glossary of lichen terms#{{biology:{1}}}|{{Biology:{1}}}]]. The asci are club-shaped, eight-spored, mixed with paraphyses. The spores are ovoid-ellipsoidal, single-celled, transparent, with a colourless [[Glossary of lichen terms#{{biology:{1}}}|{{Biology:{1}}}]]m and a simple nucleus."[2]
As of 2017, there is no molecular sequence data available for this genus, and it remains poorly known. It is considered to be of uncertain (incertae sedis) placement in the order Lecanoromycetes.[3][4]
