Two new species of Candelariella are described. Candelariella granuliformis is a polyspored, terricolous, small granular, blastidiate species known from arctic and alpine areas of North America and Scandinavia. Candelariella corviniscalensis, described from one locality in Colorado, is characterized by biatorine apothecia, long spores and an endolithic thallus. In addition a key to the presently recognized species in Candelariales known to occur in North America is provided.
