Pseudosagedia is a genus of corticolous (bark-dwelling) lichens in the family Porinaceae.[2] It was first circumscribed as a section of genus Arthopyrenia by Swiss botanist Johannes Müller Argoviensis in 1862.[3] Maurice Choisy elevated it to distinct generic status in 1949.[4] Pseudosagedia was little used until, in 1995, Josef Hafellner and Klaus Kalb resurrected the genus to contain members of the Porina nitidula species group with the perithecial pigment called Pseudosagedia-violet and lacking setae.[5]
