Rhizoplaca
Genus of lichen-forming fungi
Rhizoplaca is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Lecanoraceae .[ 2] Members of the genus are commonly called rimmed navel lichens [ 3] because of their umbilicate growth form and lecanorine (rimmed with thallus -like tissue)apothecia , also rock-posy lichen and rockbright .[ 4] [ 5] : 118
