Thyrea is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Porocyphaceae.[2] It contains four species that have been accepted by Species Fungorum.[3]
The genus was circumscribed by Italian lichenologist Abramo Bartolommeo Massalongo in 1856, with Thyrea plectospora assigned as the type species.[4] In a multilocus phylogeny and molecular phylogenetics-informed reclassification of the Lichinomycetes published in 2024, María Prieto, Mats Wedin and Matthias Schultz placed Thyrea in the emended family Porocyphaceae.
