Belongs within: Peltigerineae.
The Peltigeraceae are a family of generally cyanobacterium-associated lichenised fungi, found worldwide but particularly in temperate regions.
Characters (from Cannon & Kirk 2007): Lichenized with cyanobacteria or green algae (then often with cyanobacterial cephalodia). Thallus usually large and spreading, foliose, lobed, usually green or dark greyish, matt or shiny, sometimes with cephalodia, corticate only on the upper surface, the lower surface often tomentose and with conspicuous rhizoids. Ascomata apothecial, formed on the upper surface, laminar or marginal, with a thin covering layer which breaks apart at an early stage to expose the hymenium, flat or saddleshaped, brown or black. Interascal tissue of simple conglutinate paraphyses, sometimes swollen at the tip. Asci fissitunicate with a thickened apex, a J+ apical ring and a more weakly J+ gelatinized outer layer. Ascospores hyaline to brown, elongate, transversely septate, sometimes ornamented. Anamorphs pycnidial, poorly known.
