Baculifera is a genus of lichens in the family Caliciaceae.[1] It was circumscribed in 2000 by Bernhard Marbach and Klaus Kalb. Species in this genus are characterized by having bacilliform conidia typically measuring 8–11 μm long, and a non-inspersed hymenium. The genus is roughly similar in morphology to Buellia.[2]
