The species are primarily distinguished by the presence or absence of a central axis, the colour and shape of the spongy cushion and the nature of the secondary compounds. A key to all known species of Anzia from China is presented.

    The 8th IAL Symposium Lichens in Deep Time August 1–5, 2016 Helsinki, Finland IAL8 Abstracts Welcome Messages, pages 3, 5 Opening Address, page 7 Abstracts of keynote lectures, pages 10–17 Abstracts of oral presentations, pages 21–82 Abstracts of poster presentations, pages 85–200 Welcome Message The President of the International Association of Lichenology Dear Fellow Lichenologist, It is a great pleasure for me to welcome you to IAL8 in Helsinki on behalf of the IAL Council and the Scientific Thorsten Lumbsch Committee of the symposium. IAL President Since the inaugural IAL meeting in Münster in March 1986, our society has had tremendously successful and enjoyable meetings. I still remember the first meeting when, for the first time, I met a number of prestigious colleagues and – as an The 8 undergraduate student – could interact with colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere. These meetings are especially vital for th students and early career scientists where they can interact – Lichens in Deep Time IAL Symposium with colleagues and build networks. Older scientists, like myself, can pass on essential guidance to younger scholars, while at the same time also learn from their new and bright ideas. We are confident that this 8th Symposium in Helsinki will be equally as memorable as the previous ones. Helsinki has a rich history and tradition in lichenological research and we are looking forward to this event, entitled ”Lichens in Deep Time”. Contributions to the symposium will reflect the latest trends in using genomic data to better understand the lichen symbiosis and the evolutionary history of its partners, have a strong part in ecological studies, address the threats imposed by rapid man-made changes occurring to the biosphere and an ever-growing interest in tropical lichens.

In total, c. 1500 specimens of c. 400 species were recorded of the evaluated groups (all except the Graphidaceae and a few foliose groups). The following new species are described: Astrothelium conjugatum, Heterodermia fragmentata, Lecanactis minu- tissima, Megalotremis cylindrica, Porina microtriseptata, Porina monilisidiata, Psoroglaena spinosa, Pyrenula multicolo- rata, and Schistophoron muriforme.

II Abstract Earth is facing one irreversible and concerning global environmental change: the loss of biodiversity. Several studies have been done in recent years in order to protect biodiversity but it is still necessary to improve global understanding on this theme. This is a very concerning situation, especially when it comes to oceanic islands, which account for only about 5% of the Earth’s surface but contain 20% of the world's biodiversity and are centers of endemism.

    Folia Cryptog.

H. Kholodny Institute of Botany, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv 01601, Ukraine. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The photobionts of 22 specimens of Placynthiella and Micarea genera were identified. The photobionts of Pla- cynthiella dasaea (Stirt.) Khodosovtsev, P. icmalea (Ach.) Coppins & P. James, Micarea melanobola (Nyl.) Coppins and M. misella (Nyl.) Hedl. are reported for the first time. This is also the first report about Elliptochloris reniformis (Watanabe) Ettl & Gärtner, E. subsphaerica (Reisigl) Ettl & Gärtner, Interfilum spp. and Neocystis sp. as the photobionts of lichens. The mycobiont of some taxa of Micarea and Placynthiella can be associated with several algae at the same time. In this case, one is the primary photobiont (common for all lichen specimens of a certain lichen species) while the others are additional algae which vary depending on the substratum or the habitat. Elliptochloris and Pseudococcomyxa species are primary photobionts for the studied taxa of the genus Micarea. The species ofRadiococcuus and Pseudochlorella are primary photobionts of the studied species of Placynthiella. For all investigated lichens the low selectivity level of the mycobiont is assumed.

ABSTRACT. Lecanora markjohnstonii is described as new to science from the southeastern United States, with a primary center of distribution in the southern Appalachian Mountain region. This sterile, sorediate crust is saxicolous on both sandstone and granite and occurs commonly in mixed hardwood-conifer forests with rock outcrops. It is characterized by a gray-green, rimose-areolate thallus, erumpent, raised soralia, and the production of atranorin together with 2-0-methylperlatolic acid. Molecular phylogenetic analyses of newly generated rDNA assemblies from a broad sampling of lineages within the Lecanoromycetes and Arthoniomycetes inferred placement of the unknown crust in the Lecanoraceae, specifically within Lecanora. Analysis of the mtSSU gene region then inferred placement in the Lecanora subfusca group. Finally, a fully assembled and annotated mitochondrial genome was compared to other lichenized fungal mitogenomes, including the publicly available Lecanora strobilina mitogenome, and showed that the gene region atp9 was missing as in other members of the Lecanorales.

  • Epiphytic Lichens of Conguillío National Park, Southern Chile
    Gayana Bot. 70(1):70(1), 201366-81, 2013 ISSN 0016-5301 Epiphytic lichens of Conguillío National Park, southern Chile Líquenes epífi tos en el Parque Nacional Conguillío, sur de Chile CECILIA RUBIO1*, MARCELO SAAVEDRA2, MAURICIO CUÉLLAR1, RODRIGO DÍAZ1 & WANDA QUILHOT1 1 Herbario de Líquenes UV, Departamento de Química y Recursos Naturales, Facultad de Farmacia, Universidad de Valparaíso. 2 Corporación Nacional Forestal, Región de la Araucanía, Bilbao 931, 2º piso, Temuco. *[email protected] ABSTRACT One hundred and thirty eight epiphytic lichen species in 40 genera, are recorded from Conguillio National Park (38º30’- 38º50’ S; 71º30’-71º55’ W), with predominancy of typically southern South American species. Lichen diversity is high, about 9 % of the lichen mycobiota from Chile, due mainly to species of the genera Bunodophoron, Menegazzia, Nephroma, Pannaria, Protousnea and Pseudocyphellaria. Levels of endemism are rather high (nearly 40 %); also austral and cosmopolitan species, about 19 % and 16 % respectively, are the most representative biogeographical elements in the Park. KEYWORDS: Endemism, epiphytes, lichens, phorophytes, wild protected areas. RESUMEN Se registran para la micobiota liquénica epífi ta en el Parque Nacional Conguillío (38º30’- 38º50’ S; 71º30’ - 71º55’ W) 183 especies en 40 géneros con predominancia de especies típicas del sur de Sudamérica. La diversidad es elevada, alrededor del 9 % de la fl ora liquénica del país debido, principalmente, a especies de los géneros Bunodophoron, Menegazzia, Nephroma, Pannaria, Protousnea and Pseudocyphellaria. Los niveles de endemismo son elevados, cerca del 40 %; los líquenes australes y cosmopolitas, 19 % y 16% respectivamente, son los elementos biogeográfi cos más representativos en el Parque. PALABRAS CLAVE: Endemismo, epífitos, líquenes, forófitos, áreas silvestres protegidas.
