Genus of lichens
Steineropsis is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Pannariaceae. It has two species. The genus was circumscribed by Toby Spribille and Lucia Muggia in 2010, with "Steineropsis alaskana" assigned as the type species. The type specimen of this lichen was found in Skagway, Alaska, where it was growing on a rock in a snowbed at an altitude of . The generic name alludes to a resemblance to the genus "Steinera". A second species, "Steineropsis laceratula", also found in Alaska, was added to the genus in 2020. Molecular phylogenetic analysis showed that "Steineropsis" has a sister taxon relationship to genus "Protopannaria".
The genus name of "Steineropsis" is in honour of Julius Steiner (1844–1918), who was an Austrian botanist (Mycology and Lichenology) and teacher. He taught at the k.k. Staatsgymnasium (a State Grammar School) in Vienna.
