Fellhanera naevioides is a species of leaf-dwelling, crustose lichen-forming fungus in the family Ectolechiaceae. It is a tiny, yellowish gray lichen that grows on living leaves in the understory of lowland rainforest in the Colombian Amazon. The species was described in 2023 and is named for its resemblance to Fellhanera naevia, from which it differs in its more scattered thallus and darker fruiting bodies.
