Seirophora is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Teloschistaceae. It has eight species. The genus was circumscribed by German lichenologist Josef Poelt in 1983, with Seirophora magara assigned as the type species. Several species were transferred to Seirophora in 2004 when the genus was emended by Patrik Frödén and Per Lassen to include some species segregated from Teloschistes.
