Ainoa is a genus of lichens in the family Baeomycetaceae. The genus contains two species: A. mooreana, and the type, A. geochroa. The genus was circumscribed in 2001 by H. Thorsten Lumbsch and Imke Schmitt to contain the two species, which were formerly placed in genus Trapelia.[1] A third species, Ainoa bella from eastern North America, was added to the genus in 2015.[2]
The genus name of Ainoa is in honour of Aino Marjatta Henssen (1925–2011), who was a German lichenologist and systematist.[3]
