Follmanniella is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Roccellaceae.[1] A monotypic genus, it contains the single species Follmanniella scutellata.

The genus name of Follmanniella is in honour of Otto Follmann (1856 – 1926), who was a German geologist, paleontologist and educator.[2]

The genus was circumscribed by Jörg Peine and Birgit Werner in Flechten Follmann on page 289 in 1995, and then in Biblioth. Lichenol. Vol.107 on page 38 in 2012 (Sekundär-Literatur).
