MycoKeys 48: 55–65. https://doi.org/10.3897/mycokeys.48.33001 Abstract Biatora alnetorum S. Ekman & Tønsberg, a lichenised ascomycete in the family Ramalinaceae (Lecano- rales, Lecanoromycetes), is described as new to science. It is distinct from other species of Biatora in the combination of mainly three-septate ascospores, a crustose thallus forming distinctly delimited soralia that develop by disintegration of convex pustules and the production of atranorin in the thallus and apothecia. The species is known from the Pacific Northwest of North America, where it inhabits the smooth bark of Alnus alnobetula subsp. sinuata and A. rubra. Biatora alnetorum is also a new host for the lichenicolous ascomycete Sclerococcum toensbergii Diederich. Keywords Biatora flavopunctata, Biatora pallens, Lecania, BAli-Phy Introduction During field work in the Pacific Northwest of the United States and Canada in 1995– 2018, the second author came across a distinct crustose and sorediate lichen on the smooth bark of alders. -
Habitat Quality and Disturbance Drive Lichen Species Richness in a Temperate Biodiversity Hotspot
Oecologia (2019) 190:445–457 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00442-019-04413-0 COMMUNITY ECOLOGY – ORIGINAL RESEARCH Habitat quality and disturbance drive lichen species richness in a temperate biodiversity hotspot Erin A. Tripp1,2 · James C. Lendemer3 · Christy M. McCain1,2 Received: 23 April 2018 / Accepted: 30 April 2019 / Published online: 15 May 2019 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract The impacts of disturbance on biodiversity and distributions have been studied in many systems. Yet, comparatively less is known about how lichens–obligate symbiotic organisms–respond to disturbance. Successful establishment and development of lichens require a minimum of two compatible yet usually unrelated species to be present in an environment, suggesting disturbance might be particularly detrimental. To address this gap, we focused on lichens, which are obligate symbiotic organ- isms that function as hubs of trophic interactions. Our investigation was conducted in the southern Appalachian Mountains, USA. We conducted complete biodiversity inventories of lichens (all growth forms, reproductive modes, substrates) across 47, 1-ha plots to test classic models of responses to disturbance (e.g., linear, unimodal). Disturbance was quantifed in each plot using a standardized suite of habitat quality variables. We additionally quantifed woody plant diversity, forest density, rock density, as well as environmental factors (elevation, temperature, precipitation, net primary productivity, slope, aspect) and analyzed their impacts on lichen biodiversity. Our analyses recovered a strong, positive, linear relationship between lichen biodiversity and habitat quality: lower levels of disturbance correlate to higher species diversity. With few exceptions, additional variables failed to signifcantly explain variation in diversity among plots for the 509 total lichen species, but we caution that total variation in some of these variables was limited in our study area. -

Myriospora rufescens was rediscovered in Germany almost 100 years after its first collection. A neotype is designated for Acarospora fusca, which is recognized as a synonym of M. rufescens. Key words—Myriospora hassei, Silobia, Trimmatothelopsis Introduction The genus Myriospora in the Acarosporaceae is a well-supported clade distinguished by a constellation of morphological characters (non-lecideine apothecia, high hymenium, thin paraphyses, interrupted algal layer, short conidia, no secondary metabolites or norstictic acid) (Wedin et al. 2009; Westberg et al. 2011, 2015). The genus currently contains 12 species that occur in Antarctica, Asia, Europe, and North and South America (Knudsen 2011, Westberg et al. 2011, Knudsen et al. 2012, Knudsen & Bungartz 2014, Schiefelbein et al. 2015, Purvis et al. in press). Myriospora fulvoviridula (Harm.) Cl. Roux is a synonym of M. scabrida (H. Magn.) K. Knudsen & Arcadia (Knudsen et al. 2017, Roux et al. 2014). The most common species in the genus is M. smaragdula (Wahlenb.) Nägeli ex Uloth, which occurs in Asia, Europe, North and South America (Magnusson 1929, Knudsen 2007, Westberg et al. -

Acarospora superfusa is confirmed as occurring in North America. Biatorella rappii is placed in synonymy with Ramonia microspora.

Provence-Alpes-Côte D’azur: Var Dist., Massif volcanique de la Courtine, pres Ollisules, 1923, de Crozals (hb. B. de Lesd.[n.v.-presumed destroyed], holotype; UPS! isotype). Acarospora complanata was described from France (Magnusson 1924) and Magnusson recognized it as occurring in Africa and Mexico (Magnusson 1929, 1956). The species forms a brown areolate orbicular thallus with inconspicuous immersed apothecia and an effigurate margin with narrow lobes, a hymenium 80–90 μm high, paraphyses at mid-height mostly 2–2.5 μm in diameter, and a cortex that contains gyrophoric and lecanoric acids (KC+ pink). For a fuller description see Magnusson (1929). Morphologically, the species does not appear related to A. molybdina (Wahlenb.) Trevis, A. macrocyclos Vain., or A. -

MAGNUSSON ( With 7 figures in the text) uring his expedition to North East Greenland in 1929 Prof. D B. Lynge, Oslo, collected a great number of Acarospora species which were sent to me for revision or determination. To this collection was added a considerable n.umber of specimens collected by Th. M. Fries (Th. Fr.) in West Greenland in 1871 and some from Spitsbergen in 1868. Other collections were made in Greenland by P. F. Scholander 1930, and in Spitsbergen by Lynge 1926 and P. F. Scholander 1931. The supposition that the Acarospora-species of Greenland should resemble those of Northern Scandinavia has appeared to be wrong as there were no less than 8 species that could not be identified with those already known. And there seems to be several new species among the material which was too scanty to allow of a certain determination. The specimens collected hy Th. M. Fries belong to Natur historiska Riksmuseet, Stockholm, and those collected by Lynge and Scholander to Botanisk Museum, Oslo. The specimens are arranged here in the order adopted by me in my Monograph of Acarospora 1929. -
