Summary description from Wikipedia:

Sarrameana

Sarrameana is a small genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Sarrameanaceae. Established in 1973 from specimens collected in New Caledonia, this genus is distinguished by its unusual spores that have long, hair-like tails at both ends and often coil in spirals within the spore-containing structures. The genus contains two species of small, crust-forming lichens that grow on bark in cool, humid forests of the southern hemisphere, including New Caledonia, Tasmania, and New Zealand. Both species form a thin, white thallus with scattered black fruiting bodies.
