Timdalia is a fungal genus in the family Acarosporaceae.[2] It is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Timdalia intricata, a saxicolous (rock-dwelling), crustose lichen. This species was first formally described by Swedish lichenologist Adolf Hugo Magnusson in 1935, based on a collection made by Eduard Frey in Austria. It was initially classified in the genus Acarospora.[3] Josef Hafellner circumscribed Timdalia to contain the species in 2001. It was initially placed in the family Lecanoraceae,[4] but molecular phylogenetic studies showed Timdalia to belong in the Acarosporaceae.[5] The genus name honours Norwegian lichenologist Einar Timdal.[4]
Later collections of Timdalia intricata were made in the Austrian Alps, Italy,[6] and various Scandinavian locations. In Scandinavia, the lichen is usually found at subalpine and alpine elevation ranges between 630 and 1,400 m (2,070 and 4,590 ft), typically on vertical to overhanging rock faces, and on iron-containing silicate rocks.[7]
