Caloplaca ahtii is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling) crustose lichen in the family Teloschistaceae. Found in Europe, it was formally described as a new species in 1994 by Ulrik Søchting. The type locality was in Finland, and the type specimen was found growing on Populus. The species epithet honours Finnish lichenologist Teuvo Ahti.[1] In 2022, the species was documented from North-Western European Russia.[2] It is also found in North America.[3]
