Baeomyces is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Baeomycetaceae.[2] Members of Baeomyces are commonly called cap lichens.[3][4] The genus was circumscribed by German mycologist Christiaan Hendrik Persoon in 1794.[5] Although Persoon did not designate a type species in his original description of the genus, Frederick Clements and Cornelius Lott Shear assigned Baeomyces byssoides as the type in 1931.[6]
