Lahmiales Explained

The Lahmiales are an order of fungi in the Ascomycota, or sac fungi. The order has not been assigned to any class (incertae sedis). The taxon is monotypic and contains a single family, the Lahmiaceae, which in turn contains the single genus Lahmia.[1] [2]

The genus name of Lahmia is in honour of Johann Gottlieb Franz-Xaver Lahm (1811-1888), who was a German clergyman and botanist (Lichenology andMycology).[3] The genus of Lahmia was circumscribed by Gustav Wilhelm Koerber in Parerga Lichenol on page 281 in 1861.
