Lasallia is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Umbilicariaceae. The genus was circumscribed by François Victor Mérat de Vaumartoise in 1821.[1] The genus name Lasallia honours of Mr. Lasalle (born around 1820), who was a French gardener and botanist, who worked in Fontainebleau.[2] Early molecular phylogenetics analysis of internal transcribed spacer DNA showed that the genus was monophyletic.[3]
High performance liquid chromatography analysis of several Lasallia species revealed a number of secondary metabolites in this genus, including gyrophoric acid, lecanoric acid, umbilicaric acid, 7-chloroemodin, valsarin, skyrin, hiascic acid, and ovoic acid.[4]
