Muhria is a lichen genus in the family Cladoniaceae.[2] It is monotypic, containing the single species Muhria urceolata. The genus was circumscribed by Norwegian lichenologist Per Magnus Jørgensen in 1987.[3] The genus name of Muhria is in honour of Lars-Erik Muhr (b.1936), a Swedish teacher and botanist (Lichenology and Mycology).[4]

Filip Högnabba has proposed that the species should be placed in genus Stereocaulon.[1]
