Lecanactis is a genus of crustose lichens, commonly called old wood rimmed lichen.[2] The genus was circumscribed in 1855 by German lichenologist Gustav Wilhelm Körber, who assigned Lecanactis abietina as the type species.[3]

The mycobiont (fungus partner) is in the family Roccellaceae.[4] The photobiont is an algae in the genus Trentepohlia.[2]
