Placolecis is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Catillariaceae.[2] It has four species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling) and crustose lichens. The genus was circumscribed by Italian botanist Vittore Benedetto Antonio Trevisan de Saint-Léon in 1857.[3] He did not assign a type species for the genus. Josef Hafellner designated a lectotype for Placolecis balanina in 1984,[4] but subsequently, this taxon was folded into P. opaca.[5]

Species

The taxon once known as Placolecis plumbea (Lightf.) Trevis. (1857) is now considered synonymous with Pectenia plumbea.[7]
