Description
Biatoropsis is a genus of lichenicolous fungi, meaning it grows on other lichens. It forms small, rounded structures called galls on its host lichens, often appearing as tiny bumps or warts. These fungi are parasitic, deriving nutrients from their lichen hosts without providing any benefits in return. Biatoropsis species are typically found in temperate and boreal regions across the Northern Hemisphere.
