The lichen Lecidella meiococca and the lichenicolous fungus Tremella phaeophysciae are reported as new to Russia, the lichen Lecania sambucina and the lichenicolous fungus Endococcus tricolorans are new for the European Russia, the lichens Buellia arborea, Chaenotheca cinerea, Bellemerea sanguinea, resinicolous calicioid fungus Chaenothecopsis mediarossica and lichenicolous fungi Arthonia molendoi, Lichenochora obscuroides, Pronectria leptaleae, Sphaerellothecium cladoniae are new for the North-Western European Russia. The most interesting records are briefly discussed. Keywords: lichens, new records, Chaenotheca cinerea, Chaenothecopsis mediarossica, Leningrad Region, St. Petersburg, European Russia.

Lichen substances and allied fungi from the Leningrad Region in the thallus of Buellia arborea were analyzed and St. Petersburg (see e.g. Kuznetsova et al., by using the standard technique of thin-layer 2007; Stepanchikova et al., 2010a, b, 2011a, chromatography (TLC) in solvent system C (Or- b, 2013b; Himelbrant et al., 2013, 2015).
