Astrothelium corallinum is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), crustose lichen in the family Trypetheliaceae. Found in Guyana, it was formally described as a new species in 2016 by André Aptroot. The type specimen was collected from Rain Mountain, southeast of the village in Paruima Mission (Upper Mazaruni District) at an altitude of 500m (1,600feet); here, it was found growing on the smooth bark of trees in a rainforest. The lichen has a smooth, somewhat shiny thallus that covers areas of up to 8cm (03inches) in diameter; the entire thallus is surrounded by a thin (0.3 mm) black line that is the prothallus. The whitish parts of the pseudostromata will fluoresce yellow when lit with a long-wavelength UV light; this is due to the presence of lichexanthone, a lichen product. The thallus, however, does not contain lichexanthone, which distinguishes it from the similar species A. ochroleucoides.
