Ainoa is a genus of lichens in the family Baeomycetaceae. It was named in honour of the German lichenologist Aino Henssen. These rock-dwelling lichens form thin crusts that break into small flakes and are distinguished by their abundant dark brown to black button-like fruiting bodies that sit on short stalks. The genus includes three species found in cool mountainous regions, where they grow on hard siliceous rocks and can withstand repeated cycles of wetting and drying.
