NEW AUSTRALIAN AND AUSTRALIAN STATE LICHEN AND LICHENICOLOUS LICHEN REPORTS

1 2 3 4 D. ALLEN , H. T. LUMBSCH , S. MADDEN AND H. SrPMAN

ABSTRACT. Based on recent acquisitions of the Australian National Herbarium since 1982, mainly the collections of J.A.Elix and H.Streimann, new distribution data are presented for 162 species. This includes 31 species new to : Acarospora reagens, Co/lema fragrans, Cyphelium australe, Dictyonema ligulatum, Dimerella pineti, Diploschistes farinosus, D. gyrophoricus, Dirinaria compli­ cata, Heterodermia isidiophora, Hyperphyscia pruinosa, Megalospora atrorubicans ssp. atrorubi­ cans, Myriotrema bahianum, M. compunctum, M. terebratulum, Ocellularia aurata, 0. berkeleyana, Ochrolechia africana, Opegrapha .filicina, 0. phylloporinae, Peltula marginata, Physcia dimidiata, Porina sphaerocephala, Porpidia cinereoatra, Pyrenula corticata, Pyxine cylindrica, Thelotrema platysporum, Thyrea confusa, Trapelia involuta, Trichothelium triseptatum, Trypethelium aeneum, Umbilicaria nylanderiana. Most of these are tropical taxa, found in . The other species are newly recorded for one or more Australian states.

Seventeen years have elapsed since the last significant report (Elix & Streimann 1982) of new lichen records based on collections held at the Cryptogamic Herbarium of the Aus­ tralian National Herbarium (CANB). However, interesting and significant finds have been reported by various authors in revisions and in the Australasian Lichenology (formerly Australiasian Lichenological Newsletter) with many of these reports based on CANB col­ lections. The CANB collections have grown significantly since 1982 with the donation by Prof. J.A. Elix of his lichen collections and the continuing collecting program to northern Aus­ tralia which have added significantly to the knowledge of Australian lichenology. This col­ lecting program resulted in numerous records and we report 31 species new to Australia, of which 18 are from Queensland. The following are the numbers of new state records: 24 20 Queensland 58 4 42 14 Australian Capital Territory 41 13 At the meeting of Australasian Lichenologists held at Coffs Harbour, April 1998, it was decided (J. A. Elix 1998) that new lichen reports be reported regularly so that the Checklist ofAustralasian Lichens and allied Fungi could be kept up to date. The significant number of new reports held by CANB are enumerated here. This work was undertaken by

Allen & Madden as a project during the annual Student Jnternship Program ( 1999) at the Australian National Herbarium. All herbarium collections were checked against the Check/ist of Australasian Lichens and allied Fungi (Filson 1996) and known subsequent publications. When the collections were numerous then only a selection is cited to give a range of habit, habitat and geograph­ ical preferences. Collections determined by persons other than the collector are named in brackets. HS & JAC collections, unless otherwise stated, were determined by JAE. For multiple collectors only the main collector is cited. Many new reports of Lecanora and Pseudocyphellaria are present in the herbarium, but not included here, as the authors have submitted manuscripts to ABRS for publication in the Flora ofAustralia . We look forward to their timely publication. We would also sincerely like to thank the many lichenologists who have determined the CANB collections and thus passed on some of their knowledge for Australian lichenol­ ogy. Our gratitute is especially expressed to Prof. J. A. Elix (Australian National Universi­ ty) who spent considerable time checking references. H. Streimann (CANB) is also thanked for checking collections and editing. For brevity the following abbreviations are used: AA=A. Aptroot, Ck= Creek, DJG= D. J. Galloway, DMcV= D. McVean, JAE=J. A.
