The Ophioparmaceae are a small family of lichen-forming fungi in the order Umbilicariales. The family was circumscribed in 1988 by lichenologists Roderick Westgarth Rogers and H. Thorsten Lumbsch.
Genera
- Boreoplaca Timdal (1994) – 1 sp.
- Hypocenomyce M.Choisy (1951) – 3 spp.
- Ophioparma Norman (1852) – 9 spp.
The type specimen of Rhizoplacopsis weichingii has been shown to be identical with that of Boreoplaca ultrafrigida, so the genus Rhizoplacopsis has been subsumed into Boreoplaca.
