ABSTRACT. Two members of the Lecanora varia group (sensu Eigler), L. strobilina and L. symmicta, can be difficult to distinguish in northeastern North America. Morphological and chemical investigation of 277 specimens recognizes two species in northeastern North America, both fitting European concepts of L. strobilina and L. symmicta. The only reliable character for separating them is the size of the exciple (consistently larger in L. symmicta). Within each of these two species, previously unknown chemical variation is revealed—L. strobilina comprises three distinct chemotypes, while L. symmicta includes two. An isotype of L. symmictera is shown to contain the thiophanic acid chemosyndrome by HPLC, and hence the name L. symmictera cannot be applied to the xanthone-deficient chemotype of L. symmicta. Chemistry is not correlated with morphology or geographic distribution in either L. strobilina or L. symmicta,sowe regard the chemotypes of these two species as intraspecific variation. KEYWORDS. Chemotaxonomy, Lecanora varia group, New England. ¤¤¤ The genus Lecanora is a large group of crustose lichens defined by Eigler (1969) as species containing usnic traditionally characterized by lecanorine apothecia, green- acid as a major secondary product, completely lacking algal photobionts and colorless, non-septate spores in atranorin, and having a corticolous or lignicolous eight-spored, Lecanora-type asci. Lecanora has been the habit. The North American species were treated by subject of numerous investigative studies over the past S´liwa & Wetmore (2000) and Printzen (2001), with a century (for an excellent synopsis, see Pe´rez-Ortega number of species new to science proposed in the latter et al. 2010), but for the most part, the genus is still publication. As part of ongoing, collaborative efforts to regarded as an artificial assemblage of species by many further document the lichens of northeastern North modern workers. Currently within the genus, infrageneric America, we have been investigating the L. varia group ‘‘species groups’’ (e.g., the ‘‘L. subfusca group’’; the in this region (LaGreca & Lumbsch 2001; LaGreca & ‘‘L. subcarnea group’’) based primarily on chemistry Stutzman 2005). Based on Lumbsch & Brodo (2000), and apothecial anatomy are recognized. Some keys to S´liwa & Wetmore (2000), herbarium records and our Lecanora are subdivided into sections that treat particular own observations, six species of the L. varia group occur species groups (e.g., Ryan 1997). Molecular phylogenetic here—Lecanora conizaeoides Nyl. ex Crombie, L. cupressi studies over the past 15 years (Arup & Grube 1998, 2000; Tuck., L. expallens Ach., L. orae-frigidae R. Sant., L. Papong et al. 2013; Pe´rez-Ortega et al. 2010) have strobilina (Spreng.) Kieffer and L. symmicta (Ach.) Ach. demonstrated that some of these species groups, while Most are easily diagnosed on the basis of morphology, convenient for organizing identification keys, are non- substrate and/or chemistry (Brodo & Va¨nska¨ 1984; monophyletic. Lumbsch & Brodo 2000; S´liwa & Wetmore 2000). Two One such species group is the well-known Lecanora of them, however, L. strobilina and L. symmicta, can be varia group, recently shown to be non-monophyletic difficult to distinguish from each other in northeastern by Pe´rez-Ortega et al.

  • Lichens and Allied Fungi of the Indiana Forest Alliance
    2017. Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science 126(2):129–152 LICHENS AND ALLIED FUNGI OF THE INDIANA FOREST ALLIANCE ECOBLITZ AREA, BROWN AND MONROE COUNTIES, INDIANA INCORPORATED INTO A REVISED CHECKLIST FOR THE STATE OF INDIANA James C. Lendemer: Institute of Systematic Botany, The New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, NY 10458-5126 USA ABSTRACT. Based upon voucher collections, 108 lichen species are reported from the Indiana Forest Alliance Ecoblitz area, a 900 acre unit in Morgan-Monroe and Yellowwood State Forests, Brown and Monroe Counties, Indiana. The lichen biota of the study area was characterized as: i) dominated by species with green coccoid photobionts (80% of taxa); ii) comprised of 49% species that reproduce primarily with lichenized diaspores vs. 44% that reproduce primarily through sexual ascospores; iii) comprised of 65% crustose taxa, 29% foliose taxa, and 6% fruticose taxa; iv) one wherein many species are rare (e.g., 55% of species were collected fewer than three times) and fruticose lichens other than Cladonia were entirely absent; and v) one wherein cyanolichens were poorly represented, comprising only three species. Taxonomic diversity ranged from 21 to 56 species per site, with the lowest diversity sites concentrated in riparian corridors and the highest diversity sites on ridges. Low Gap Nature Preserve, located within the study area, was found to have comparable species richness to areas outside the nature preserve, although many species rare in the study area were found only outside preserve boundaries. Sets of rare species are delimited and discussed, as are observations as to the overall low abundance of lichens on corticolous substrates and the presence of many unhealthy foliose lichens on mature tree boles.

  • Taxonomic Recognition of Some Species-Level Lineages Circumscribed in Nominal Rhizoplaca Subdiscrepans S. Lat. (Lecanoraceae, Ascomycota)
    Taxonomic recognition of some species-level lineages circumscribed in nominal Rhizoplaca subdiscrepans s. lat. (Lecanoraceae, Ascomycota) Katarzyna Szczepa«ska1, Jacek Urbaniak1 and Lucyna Śliwa2 1 Department of Botany and Plant Ecology, Wroclaw University of Environmental and Life Sciences, Wrocªaw, Poland 2 Department of Lichenology, W. Szafer Institute of Botany, Polish Academy of Sciences, Kraków, Poland ABSTRACT Background. Rhizoplaca subdiscrepans (Nyl.) R. Sant., a saxicolous, placodioid lichen, is considered to have a worldwide distribution in warm-temperate to boreal-arctic areas in Asia, Europe and North America. However, recent studies have revealed that this species includes five unrecognized species-level lineages—‘subd A, B, C, D and E'. During research focused on the diversity of saxicolous lichens in mountainous areas of southern Poland, some interesting representatives of the genus Rhizoplaca were found. The main aim of our study was to determine the taxonomic status of the collected specimens by means of molecular tools and a comparative analysis of similar herbarium materials. Methods. Detailed morphological, anatomical and chemical examinations of reference material from Asia, Europe and North and South America focused primarily on a selected group of lecanoroid taxa with a placodioid thallus. In addition, 21 new generated sequences representing Lecanora pseudomellea, Protoparmeliopsis muralis, Rhizoplaca opiniconensis, R. subdiscrepans s. lat. and R. phaedrophthalma were selected for molecular study using the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS rDNA), together with 95 available GenBank sequences mainly from the genus Rhizoplaca. Submitted 20 January 2020 Results. Polish specimens that clustered with members of a potential species-level Accepted 25 June 2020 lineage `subd E' of Rhizoplaca subdiscrepans complex were recovered.

  • Identification of Some Lecidea, Porpidia and Lecidella Species (Lichen-Forming Ascomycetes) Distributed in Turkey by Sequence Analysis of Rdna ITS Region
    Araştırma Makalesi/Original Article Türk Hijyen ve Deneysel Biyoloji Dergisi Makale Dili “İngilizce”/Article Language “English” Identification of some Lecidea, Porpidia and Lecidella species (lichen-forming ascomycetes) distributed in Turkey by sequence analysis of rDNA ITS region Türkiye’de yayılış gösteren bazı Lecidea, Porpidia ve Lecidella türlerinin (liken oluşturan ascomycetes) rDNA ITS bölgesinin dizi analizi yöntemi ile tanımlanması Esin BAŞARAN1, Demet CANSARAN-DUMAN2, İlker BÜYÜK1, Sümer ARAS1 ABSTRACT ÖZET Objective: The taxonomy of Lecidea is extremely Amaç: Lecidea cinsine ait türlerin taksonomisi tür complex because of the enormous morphological içi ve türler arasındaki büyük morfolojik farklılıkların variation within and between species. The aim of this olması nedeniyle oldukça karmaşa göstermektedir. Bu study was to analyse the rDNA (ITS) regions of Lecidea çalışma kapsamında, Lecidea türleri ve onunla ilişkili species and related genus called Lecidella and Porpidia cinsler olarak bilinen ve Anadolu’da oldukça yaygın olan which are widely spreaded in Anatolia, Turkey. Lecidella ve Porpidia cins türlerine ait örneklere ait rDNA (ITS) bölgelerinin analiz edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Methods: The ITS rDNA sequence information of 17 samples from 11 species which were collected from Yöntemler: Anadolu’nun farklı bölgelerinden different provinces of Anatolia were generated. Some toplanan 11 türe ait 17 liken örneğine ait rDNA ITS dizi of the specimens from Lecidea, Lecidella, Lecanora analizi verileri incelenmiştir. Diğer ülkelerde dağılım and Porpidia genus were also taken from the GenBank gösteren Lecidea, Lecidella, Lecanora ve Porpidia cinsine (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). The phylogenetic analysis ait bazı türlerin sekans analizi bilgileri GenBank’dan was performed by the help of four different methods (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) alınmıştır.
