A contribution to the taxonomy of the genus Rinodina (Physciaceae, lichenized Ascomycotina) using combined ITS and mtSSU rDNA data

To test the phylogenetic position of phenotypically peculiar species in the Physciaceae we generated 47 new sequences (26 of nrITS region and 21 of mtSSU rDNA) from 19 crustose taxa of Physciaceae mainly from the genus Rinodina. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed the Buellia and Physcia groups. The analysis revealed a considerable variability of characters traditionally used for classification, especially in the delimitation of the genera Buellia and Rinodina. While ascus types agree well with the distinction of the Buellia and Physcia groups, none of the other traditional characters, including excipulum type and ascospore thickening, were consistent within subclades of the Physcia group. We suggest that both excipulum type and ascospore characters are rather dynamic in the evolution of Rinodina species and only appear consistent in morphologically more complex foliose and fruticose groups, which are characterized by thallus characters not present in the crustose groups. Two recent taxonomic changes are supported by molecular characters: Endohyalina insularis (syn. 'Rinodina' insularis) and Rinodina lindingeri (syn. 'Buellia' lindingeri). In addition Rinodina parvula (syn. 'Buellia' parvula) is reinstated. New records for Endohyalina brandii, E. diederichii, E. insularis and Rinodina albana are presented.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">Byssoloma rubromarginatum</Emphasis> (Pilocarpaceae: Ascomycota), a new corticolous species from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Nothofagus</Emphasis> forests in Argentina

A new corticolous species of Byssoloma, B. rubromarginatum Messuti and de la Rosa from Nothofagus dombeyi forests is described and illustrated. The new species is characterized by the morphology of the thallus and apothecia, the 3–5 (7)-septate ascospores, the presence of an anthraquinone in the exciple, and its ecology. It is the first species within the genus known to have gyrophoric acid in the apothecial margin. A key to Byssoloma species known from Nothofagus temperate forests in South America is provided.

A remarkable new species in the lichen genusPlacopsis from Papua New Guinea (lichenized ascomycetes,Agyriaceae)

Placopsis auriculata Lumbsch & Kashiwadani is described from Papua New Guinea. This new species is characterized by the presence of campylidia-like helmet-shaped soralia and the presence of the gyrophoric acid chemosyndrome. Hiascic acid is reported for the first time from theAgyriaceae. The distinction of that species from other sorediate species ofPlacopsis is briefly discussed.     

Rinodina turfaceoides,a new corticolous,blastidiate species from the Iberian Peninsula

Abstract:A new corticolous lichen, Rinodina turfaceoides, is described from the Serra de Estrela (Portugal). It is characterized mainly by the blastidiate thallus, large apothecia covered by a thick, yellow-orange pruina, large Physcia -type ascospores and chemistry. The new species is compared with the closely related but mainly muscicolous, R. turfacea, as well as with other corticolous Rinodina species with vegetative propagules, including R. colobinoides and R. disjuncta. Habit photographs of the new species and illustrations of its ascospores are also provided.     

AUSTRALIAENA STREIMANNII,A NEW GENUS AND SPECIES IN THEPHYSCIACEAEFROM TROPICAL AUSTRALASIA

The genusAustraliaena(lichenized Ascomycetes,Physciaceae) with the single speciesA. streimanniisp. nov. is described as new from tropical Australasia. Morphologically it is characterized by crustose thalli with an often radiate-plicate margin, ascospores with a type-B ontogeny, and filiform spermatia. The chemistry of this taxon is diverse (lobaric acid, conlobaric acid, xanthones, gyrophoric acid, lecanoric acid, 5-O-methylhiascic acid, perlatolic acid), and three chemotypes are distinguished.     

Taxonomy of someDiploschistes spp. (lichenized ascomycetes,Thelotremataceae) containing gyrophoric acid

Three species which contain both gyrophoric and lecanoric acids and possess perithecioid ascomata are recognized in the genusDiploschistes. D. badius andD. gyrophoricus are described as new, whileD. subcupreus is reduced to synonymy withD. sticticus. Two species occur in the southern hemisphere, whileD. badius is found in N. America.     

OBSERVATIONS ON THE LICHEN FLORA OF HIGH GROUND IN THE WEST OF IRELAND

The lichen flora of high ground in the west of Ireland is described by reference to four localities (Brandon Mountain, Muckanaght, Ben Bulben, Slieve League). These were selected on the basis of their reputation for calcicolous alpine vascular plants and for being some of the most highly oceanic mountains in Europe. The montane element in the lichen flora is strictly limited, populations being small and isolated, although sub-montane species are more frequent. A small group of 44 species has been identified, which is 30% fewer than is found in either the Lake District or Snowdonia; their distribution and ecology are described. The margin of high-level tarns on Brandon Mountain support communities of outstanding importance, includingRinodina fimbriata, new to the British Isles. Seventeen lichens are reported as being new to Ireland. 1996 The British Lichen Society     

TWO NEW SOREDIATE TAXA OFPELTIGERA

Examination of specimens ofPeltigera didactyla, from Africa, Asia, Europe and North America revealed that this sorediate species includes three entities that can be separated on morphological characters. A new species,P. lambinonii, is described from East Africa, and a new combinationP. didactylavar.extenuata, is proposed to accommodate morphs from mesic forest habitats in Asia, Europe and North America. Despite this taxonomic reduction,P. didactylavar.didactylaremains a ubiquitous taxon. The former two taxa often produce methyl gyrophorate, which can co-occur with traces of gyrophoric acid. These tridepsides were only rarely detected in var.didactyla; their occasional presence seems to be best explained by hybridization. The taxonomic and ecological significance of these substances is discussed.     

Lichens at Dungeness

LAUNDON, J. R., 1989. Lichens at Dungeness . The lichen vegetation at Dungeness is reviewed. The most important lichen communities are of three types. Firstly, there are the crustose lichens which colonize the bare pebbles. Secondly, the tracts of rich Cladonia turf which form the lichen heath and which play a major role in the vegetation cycle. Thirdly, there are the epiphytes on Prunus scrub. In addition, lichens on artificial substrates, especially wooden fences, are noteworthy. About 150 species occur, amongst the most interesting being Cladonia mitis, Lecanora helicopis, Lecidea insidiosa, Parmelia soredians, Rinodina aspersa and Umea glabrata. A new combination is made in the genus Porpidia. The term 'bird farming' is published. The fragmentation of the vegetation by building and gravel extraction receives critical comment.     

Contribución al conocimiento de los líquenes epifíticos del Valle de Sanabria (Zamora,España)

A catalogue of epiphytic lichens from the Sanabria valley (Zamora) is presented in this study. A total of 145 taxa are reported. According to our data, 137 taxa are new records for Zamora Province. For each species, ecological and chorological remarks are included. Chaenotheca furfuracea, Chromatochlamys muscorum, Cladina arbuscula subsp. mitis, Degelia atlantica, Julella lactea, Mycobilimbia hypnorum, Nephroma parile, Pannaria ignobilis, Pannaria pezizoides, Peltigera britannica, P. hymenina, Pertusaria ophthalmiza, Rinodina archaea, R. conradii, Thelenella modesta and Xylographa abietina are specially considered, due to their chorological implications in the Iberian Peninsula. We highlight the area “arroyo de las Truchas”, in Cobreros, because of the particularly wide diversity of epiphytic lichens.     

El género Ochrolechia A. Massai. (Pertusariaceae,liquenes) en Espana y Portugal

The genus Ochrolechia is widespread in Spain and Portugal and now includes 14 species, 1 form and 4 chemical races (11 species and 3 chemical races are epiphytes, 2 species, 1 form and 1 chemical race are saxicolous and one species is muscicolous). We propose a new combination: O. dalmatica (Erichsen) Boqueras. Eight species are excluded from the Spanish and Portuguese floras: O. aggregata (Bagl.) Verseghy, O. anomala Verseghy, O. glaucescens (Hue) Zahlbr., O.frigida (Sw.) Lynge, O. pseudotartarea (Vain.) Verseghy, O. rosella Müll. Arg., O. subpallescens Verseghy, O. tenuissima Verseghy, O. crozalsiana Clauzade et Vêzda is included in O. tartarea. The criteria for the identification of these species are: 1 ) the chemical substances (the presence/absence of gyrophoric acid in the thallus and/or in the apothecia determines the groups inside of the genus, the presence of alectoronic acid determines the chemical races); 2) thallus with or without soredia or isidia; 3) the presence of pruina on the disc; and 4) the substratum. A key for the identification to all mentioned species is included.

Lichen chemistry and selective grazing by the coleopteran Lasioderma serricorne

Part of the Lichenological Herbarium of the University of Trieste (TSB) was infested by Lasioderma serricorne, a polyphagus coleopteran. 1440 samples of 50 lichen species with different chemistry (Parmelia s.lat., Physcia s.lat.) were analyzed in order to assess whether the lichen diet of the insect was species- and especially lichen-chemistry-selective. Multivariate analysis indicates a significant negative correlation between the presence of some lichen substances and grazing phenomena. Atranorin, calcium oxalate, fumarprotocetraric acid, gyrophoric acid, lecanoric acid, skyrin, usnic acid and zeorin play an antiherbivorous role.

Lichens on lignum in the coastal regions of western Spitsbergen (Svalbard)

Eighteen species of eleven lichen genera were found on driftwood and worked timber deposited on the beaches in the Hornsund and Billefjorden regions (the west coast of Spitsbergen, Svalbard archipelago). Majority of them indicate low substrate specificity in the high arctic regions. Only three species (Caloplaca spitsbergensis, Lecanora mughicola, L. orae-frigidae) are typical for lignum. Most of the taxa are widespread in Svalbard. Species like: Caloplaca holocarpa, C. spitsbergensis, Protothelenella sphinctrinoidella, Rinodina archaea were sporadically reported till now. Lecanora mughicola was not reported from Svalbard up to the present and this is the first record of the species for the region.
