Vahliella globigera is a species of ground- and moss-dwelling squamulose lichen in the family Vahliellaceae. Found in Alaska, it was described as a new species in 2004 by the lichenologists Alan Fryday and Per Magnus Jørgensen, who classified it in the genus "Fuscopannaria"; they initially spelled the species epithet as "globuligera". The type specimen was collected by Fryday in 
North Slope Borough, Alaska, on a bank beside a track to the International Tundra Experiment site. Jørgensen transferred it to the new genus "Vahliella" in 2008. It is the only species in the genus known to contain green algae; the remainder of "Vahliella" species utilize "Nostoc" (a cyanobacterium) as a partner.
