Chaenothecopsis is a genus of about 40 species of pin lichens in the family Mycocaliciaceae.[3] Many of the species are resinicolous, meaning they grow on conifer resin or other plant exudates. Most common host plants are trees in the genera Abies, Picea, and Tsuga.[4]
The genus was circumscribed in 1927 by Finnish lichenologist Edvard August Vainio.[1]
