'''''Steinera''''' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Koerberiaceae.<ref name="Spribille & Muggia 2012"/> It was circumscribed in 1906 by Austrian-Hungarian botanist Alexander Zahlbruckner, who dedicated the genus name to his friend Julius Steiner, an Austrian teacher and lichenologist.<ref name="Zahlbruckner 1906"/> The genus was revised by Aino Henssen and Peter Wilfred James in 1982.<ref name="Henssen & James 1982"/> In 2017, Damien Ernst and Roar Skovlund Poulsen described some new species, and recombined others into the genus based on a study of the genus in the subantarctic islands of Crozet and Kerguelen.<ref name="Ertz et al. 2017."/> ==Species== *''Steinera intricata'' {{small|(Øvstedal) Ertz (2017)}}<ref name="Ertz et al. 2017."/> *''Steinera isidiata'' {{small|Ertz & R.S.Poulsen (2017)}}<ref name="Ertz et al. 2017."/> *''Steinera latispora'' {{small|(Øvstedal) Ertz (2017)}}<ref name="Ertz et al. 2017."/> *''Steinera lebouvieri'' {{small|Ertz (2017)}}<ref name="Ertz et al. 2017."/> *''Steinera membranacea'' {{small|Ertz & R.S.Poulsen (2017)}}<ref name="Ertz et al. 2017."/> *''Steinera molybdoplaca'' {{small|(Nyl.)
