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. The topics discussed at the symposium will be as diverse as the field of lichenology itself is today. In addition to the scientific presentations and discussion, there is an opulent and exciting social program. Numerous excursions have been organized which I am confident will produce new friendships and collaborations. The scientific committee is optimistic that you will not only enjoy excellent science, but also engage in stimulating interaction with colleagues and a sense of community in one of the major capitals of lichenology. IAL8 • HELSINKI 2016 3 Welcome Message from the Local Organising Committee Dear Colleagues, It gives me great pleasure to welcome you on behalf of the local organising committee to IAL8. We are very excited to be hosting this important conference in Helsinki. We hope to follow in the successful footsteps of the previous IAL Marko Hyvärinen, symposia and make this event as enjoyable as the previous Chairman of the Local ones. Organising Committee Four and a half years ago, right after the inspiring 7th IAL Symposium in Bangkok, we started planning the content of The 8 its successor. During our first brainstorming sessions it was decided that the motto of the congress should be ”Lichens in th Deep Time”, referring to different timescales in evolution, – Lichens in Deep Time IAL Symposium ecology, and environmental change as well as in the history of lichenology. Our wide selection of sessions reflects this idea of exploring changes in lichens at different timescales and also changes in the way we perceive the very concept of a lichen. To our satisfaction this setting of sessions was well received by the lichenological community, and we now have more than 350 presentations to follow and enjoy during the congress week. The previous IAL symposia have proven to have a significant impact on the scientific activity in the field of lichenology in hosting countries. Invigorating our long tradition in lichen research is one of the major incentives for us to host the congress. However, together with the science we also want to celebrate public outreach. The ways to communicate the value of science and present the beauty of lichen diversity are variable and some of these ways are presented during the social programme of the week as well as in the pre- and post- congress excursions organised by our collaborators in the universities of Turku and Oulu. We in the Finnish Museum of Natural History ’Luomus’ are especially proud to announce the publication of the brand new book, ”Lichens of Finland” that is based on the award-winning Finnish books ”Suomen jäkäläopas” and ”Suomen rupijäkälät”. We welcome you all, and particularly those of you, who have had to travel far to join us; we wish you all a pleasant and fruitful stay. Tervetuloa jäkälöitymään! (Welcome to get lichenized) IAL8 • HELSINKI 2016 5 Opening Address CEO, Finnish Museum of Natural History ’Luomus’ Dear Lichenologists, On behalf of the Finnish Museum of Natural history ’Luomus’ and the University of Helsinki, I am very pleased and happy to welcome all 300 delegates from 46 countries who have Leif Schulman, honoured us by taking part in IAL8 in Helsinki. Director of the Finnish Museum of Natural Lichens in Deep Time is a most suitable topic for a congress History ’Luomus’ at the University of Helsinki, which has a deep tradition in lichenology. This history is reflected in the exceptionally The 8 rich lichen collections that we at Luomus are proud to keep for current and future generations of researchers. They are a th part of Finland’s national natural history collections, the care – Lichens in Deep Time IAL Symposium of which is the core duty of Luomus. In addition, Luomus is constituted to conduct research on the collections and display them to the public. These duties are intertwined in a fruitful interaction – indeed like the symbionts of a lichenized fungus – and I hope you will have some time to familiarise yourselves with and benefit from all these resources of Luomus. I wish to express my warmest thanks to the IAL Council led by the President of the IAL, Thorsten Lumbsch and to the Local Organising Committee led by Marko Hyvärinen for their joint venture to build a platform for fascinating and informative scientific presentations. The scientific programme of the conference looks impressive and seems to address questions that have wide relevance far beyond the borders of lichenology. I hope that the exciting social programme will entail plenty of opportunities for stimulating conversations and relaxation. I wish you a productive symposium and fruitful discussions, and hope that IAL8 will have a major impact on the international community of lichenologists.

  • Taxonomy and New Records of Graphidaceae Lichens in Western Pangasinan, Northern Philippines
    PRIMARY RESEARCH PAPER | Philippine Journal of Systematic Biology DOI 10.26757/pjsb2019b13006 Taxonomy and new records of Graphidaceae lichens in Western Pangasinan, Northern Philippines Weenalei T. Fajardo1, 2* and Paulina A. Bawingan1 Abstract There are limited studies on the diversity of Philippine lichenized fungi. This study collected and determined corticolous Graphidaceae from 38 collection sites in 10 municipalities of western Pangasinan province. The study found 35 Graphidaceae species belonging to 11 genera. Graphis is the dominant genus with 19 species. Other species belong to the genera Allographa (3 species) Fissurina (3), Phaeographis (3), while Austrotrema, Chapsa, Diorygma, Dyplolabia, Glyphis, Ocellularia, and Thelotrema had one species each. This taxonomic survey added 14 new records of Graphidaceae to the flora of western Pangasinan. Keywords: Lichenized fungi, corticolous, crustose lichens, Ostropales Introduction described Graphidaceae in the country (Parnmen et al. 2012). Most recent surveys resulted in the characterization of six new Graphidaceae is the second largest family of lichenized species (Lumbsch et al. 2011; Tabaquero et al.2013; Rivas-Plata fungi (Ascomycota) (Rivas-Plata et al. 2012; Lücking et al. et al. 2014). In the northwestern part of Luzon in the Philippines 2017) and is the most speciose of tropical crustose lichens (Region 1), an account on the Graphidaceae lichens was (Staiger 2002; Lücking 2009). The inclusion of the initially conducted only from the Hundred Islands National Park (HINP), separate family Thelotremataceae (Mangold et al. 2008; Rivas- Alaminos City, Pangasinan (Bawingan et al. 2014). The study Plata et al. 2012) in the family Graphidaceae made the latter the reported 32 identified lichens, including 17 Graphidaceae dominant element of lichen communities with 2,161 accepted belonging to the genera Diorygma, Fissurina, Graphis, Thecaria species belonging to 79 genera (Lücking et al.

  • Phylogeny of the Cetrarioid Core (Parmeliaceae) Based on Five
    The Lichenologist 41(5): 489–511 (2009) © 2009 British Lichen Society doi:10.1017/S0024282909990090 Printed in the United Kingdom Phylogeny of the cetrarioid core (Parmeliaceae) based on five genetic markers Arne THELL, Filip HÖGNABBA, John A. ELIX, Tassilo FEUERER, Ingvar KÄRNEFELT, Leena MYLLYS, Tiina RANDLANE, Andres SAAG, Soili STENROOS, Teuvo AHTI and Mark R. D. SEAWARD Abstract: Fourteen genera belong to a monophyletic core of cetrarioid lichens, Ahtiana, Allocetraria, Arctocetraria, Cetraria, Cetrariella, Cetreliopsis, Flavocetraria, Kaernefeltia, Masonhalea, Nephromopsis, Tuckermanella, Tuckermannopsis, Usnocetraria and Vulpicida. A total of 71 samples representing 65 species (of 90 worldwide) and all type species of the genera are included in phylogentic analyses based on a complete ITS matrix and incomplete sets of group I intron, -tubulin, GAPDH and mtSSU sequences. Eleven of the species included in the study are analysed phylogenetically for the first time, and of the 178 sequences, 67 are newly constructed. Two phylogenetic trees, one based solely on the complete ITS-matrix and a second based on total information, are similar, but not entirely identical. About half of the species are gathered in a strongly supported clade composed of the genera Allocetraria, Cetraria s. str., Cetrariella and Vulpicida. Arctocetraria, Cetreliopsis, Kaernefeltia and Tuckermanella are monophyletic genera, whereas Cetraria, Flavocetraria and Tuckermannopsis are polyphyletic. The taxonomy in current use is compared with the phylogenetic results, and future, probable or potential adjustments to the phylogeny are discussed. The single non-DNA character with a strong correlation to phylogeny based on DNA-sequences is conidial shape. The secondary chemistry of the poorly known species Cetraria annae is analyzed for the first time; the cortex contains usnic acid and atranorin, whereas isonephrosterinic, nephrosterinic, lichesterinic, protolichesterinic and squamatic acids occur in the medulla.

ISSN (online) 2154-8889 MYCOTAXON http://dx.doi.org/10.5248/124.309 Volume 124, pp. 309–321 April–June 2013 The lichen genus Fissurina (Graphidaceae) in Vietnam Santosh Joshi1, Thi Thuy Nguyen2, Nguyen Anh Dzung2, Udeni Jayalal1, Soon-Ok Oh1 & Jae-Seoun Hur1* 1Korean Lichen Research Institute, Sunchon National University, Suncheon-540 742, Korea 2Biotechnology Center, Tay Nguyen University, 567 Le Duan, Buon Ma Thuot City, Vietnam Correspondence to *: [email protected] Abstract — Nine species of Fissurina from Vietnam are briefly commented on. Fissurina dumastii, F. dumastioides, F. instabilis, F. rubiginosa, and F. undulata are recorded as new for the Vietnam lichen biota. Characteristic morpho-anatomical and chemical features are described and summarized in an artificial key to all known taxa of Fissurina from Vietnam. Key words — Chu Yang Sin National Park, corticolous, graphidoid, taxonomy Introduction Fissurina Fée (Ascomycota: Ostropales) accommodates species with mostly slit-like lirellae (Staiger 2002; Archer 2009). The diagnostic characters of the genus includes a pale to yellow-brown to olive green (rarely whitish), mostly smooth and glossy thallus, fissurine, simple to branched, immersed to prominent lirellae, uncarbonized or rarely carbonized proper exciple, clear hyaline non- amyloid hymenium, 1–8-spored asci, and hyaline, oval or narrowly to broadly ellipsoid, trans-septate to muriform, amyloid to non-amyloid, thick-walled, mostly halonate ascospores (Archer 2009; Sharma et al. 2012). Fissurina occurs in the tropics and presently comprises more than 100 species worldwide. Many species have recently been added to the genus as a consequence of a molecular and phylogenetic revision of the Graphidaceae (Rivas Plata et al.

Legionów 9, PL–80–441 Gdańsk, Poland Abstract — Roselliniella stereocaulorum growing on Stereocaulon spp. is described as new from Poland, the Asiatic part of Russia and the USA (Alaska). Key words — taxonomy, new species Introduction Roselliniella Vain. (Sordariales, Ascomycota) is an obligate lichenicolous pyrenomycetous genus that included 15 species. It is characterized mainly by non-amyloid, up to 8-spored asci without distinct apical structures, brown, simple or very rarely septate ascospores with smooth or microguttulate (not verruculose) walls lacking visible pores, and brown, commonly distinct vegetative hyphae penetrating usually only the host tissues, but sometimes also surrounding perithecia (Matzer & Hafellner 1990, Aptroot et al. 1997, Hawksworth & Miądlikowska 1997, Hoffmann & Hafellner 2000, Etayo 2002, Etayo & Sancho 2008). Members of the genus grow mainly on various foliose, fruticose and occasionally also crustose lichens of two orders, Lecanorales and Peltigerales (Matzer & Hafellner 1990, Aptroot et al. 1997, Hawksworth & Miądlikowska 1997, Etayo 2002), with the exception of R. microthelia (Wallr.) Nik. Hoffm. & Hafellner. This species is confined to the genus Trapelia M. Choisy (Hoffmann & Hafellner 2000), a member of Baeomycetales (classification according to Lumbsch & Huhndorf 2007, Lumbsch et al. 2007). During the studies on lichenicolous fungi in the Holarctic and a revision of the genus Stereocaulon in Poland, we found interesting specimens of Roselliniella with predominantly 4-spored asci.

The taxonomic characters of each species were described briefly and supported by ecology, distribution and illustrations. Keywords: Lichens - New records - Eastern Himalayas - Southern India. [Cite as: Logesh AR, Joshi S, Ingle KK & Upreti DK (2014) Some new additions to the lichen family Rocellaceae (Arthoniales) from India. Tropical Plant Research 1(1): 1–3] INTRODUCTION The genus Bactrospora A. Massal. was revised by Egea & Torrente (1993) and represented by 20 species and one variety, among them four were previously reported from India Bactrospora jenikii (Vìzda) Egea & Torrente, B. lamprospora (Nyl.) Lendemer, B. metabola (Nyl.) Egea & Torrente, B. myriadea (Fée) Egea & Torrente (Singh & Sinha 2010). The genus Bactrospora differs from similar genera Lecanactis and Opegrapha by lecideine ascomata, dark proper exciple and elongate, transversely septate, fragmenting ascospores (Ponzetti & McCune 2006). The allopatric genus Sigridea was monographed by Tehler (1993) with four species world- wide. In India Nylander (1867) recorded single species of Sigridea as Platygrapha galucomoides Nyl. which is now known as Sigridea glaucomoides (Nyl.) Tehler. Sigridea species are recognized by white thallus, circular ascomata, well developed thalline margin, hyaline, 3-septate, curved ascospores with one end tapering and the presence of psoromic acid.

  • An Evolving Phylogenetically Based Taxonomy of Lichens and Allied Fungi
    Opuscula Philolichenum, 11: 4-10. 2012. *pdf available online 3January2012 via (http://sweetgum.nybg.org/philolichenum/) An evolving phylogenetically based taxonomy of lichens and allied fungi 1 BRENDAN P. HODKINSON ABSTRACT. – A taxonomic scheme for lichens and allied fungi that synthesizes scientific knowledge from a variety of sources is presented. The system put forth here is intended both (1) to provide a skeletal outline of the lichens and allied fungi that can be used as a provisional filing and databasing scheme by lichen herbarium/data managers and (2) to announce the online presence of an official taxonomy that will define the scope of the newly formed International Committee for the Nomenclature of Lichens and Allied Fungi (ICNLAF). The online version of the taxonomy presented here will continue to evolve along with our understanding of the organisms. Additionally, the subfamily Fissurinoideae Rivas Plata, Lücking and Lumbsch is elevated to the rank of family as Fissurinaceae. KEYWORDS. – higher-level taxonomy, lichen-forming fungi, lichenized fungi, phylogeny INTRODUCTION Traditionally, lichen herbaria have been arranged alphabetically, a scheme that stands in stark contrast to the phylogenetic scheme used by nearly all vascular plant herbaria. The justification typically given for this practice is that lichen taxonomy is too unstable to establish a reasonable system of classification. However, recent leaps forward in our understanding of the higher-level classification of fungi, driven primarily by the NSF-funded Assembling the Fungal Tree of Life (AFToL) project (Lutzoni et al. 2004), have caused the taxonomy of lichen-forming and allied fungi to increase significantly in stability. This is especially true within the class Lecanoromycetes, the main group of lichen-forming fungi (Miadlikowska et al.

China * Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract—Huneckia pollinii and Flavoplaca oasis are described and illustrated from Chinese specimens. The two species and the genus Huneckia are recorded for the first time from China. Keywords—Asia, lichens, taxonomy, Teloschistaceae Introduction Teloschistaceae Zahlbr. is one of the larger families of lichenized fungi. It includes three subfamilies, Caloplacoideae, Teloschistoideae, and Xanthorioideae (Gaya et al. 2012; Arup et al. 2013). Many new genera have been proposed based on molecular phylogenetic investigations (Arup et al. 2013; Fedorenko et al. 2012; Gaya et al. 2012; Kondratyuk et al. 2013, 2014a,b, 2015a,b,c,d). Currently, the family contains approximately 79 genera (Kärnefelt 1989; Arup et al. 2013; Kondratyuk et al. 2013, 2014a,b, 2015a,b,c,d; Søchting et al. 2014a,b). Huneckia S.Y. Kondr. et al. was described in 2014 (Kondratyuk et al. 2014a) based on morphological, anatomical, chemical, and molecular data. It is characterized by continuous to areolate thalli, paraplectenchymatous cortical # Cong-Cong Miao & Xiang-Xiang Zhao contributed equally to this research.
