Box 140, Gustavus, Alaska 99826, USA Abstract Lichens are widely acknowledged to be a key component of high latitude ecosystems. However, the time investment needed for full inventories and the lack of taxonomic identification resources for crustose lichen and lichenicolous fungal diversity have hampered efforts to fully gauge the depth of species richness in these ecosystems. Using a combination of classical field inventory and extensive deployment of chemical and molecular analysis, we assessed the diversity of lichens and associated fungi in Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska (USA), a mixed landscape of coastal boreal rainforest and early successional low elevation habitats deglaciated after the Little Ice Age. We collected nearly 5000 specimens and found a total of 947 taxa, including 831 taxa of lichen-forming and 96 taxa of licheni- colous fungi together with 20 taxa of saprotrophic fungi typically included in lichen studies. A total of 98 species (10.3% of those detected) could not be assigned to known species and of those, two genera and 27 species are described here as new to science: Atrophysma cyanomelanos gen. et sp. nov., Bacidina circumpulla, Biatora marmorea, Carneothele sphagnicola gen. et sp. nov., Cirrenalia lichenicola, Corticifraga nephromatis, Fuscidea muskeg, Fuscopannaria dillmaniae, Halecania athallina, Hydropunctaria alas- kana, Lambiella aliphatica, Lecania hydrophobica, Lecanora viridipruinosa, Lecidea griseomarginata, L. streveleri, Miriquidica gyrizans, Niesslia peltigerae, Ochrolechia cooperi, Placynthium glaciale, Porpidia seakensis, Rhizocarpon haidense, Sagiolechia phaeospora, Sclerococcum fissurinae, Spilonema maritimum, Thelocarpon immersum, Toensbergia blastidiata and Xenonectriella nephromatis.An additional 71 ‘known unknown’ species are cursorily described. Four new combinations are made: Lepra subvelata (G. K. Merr.) T. Sprib., Ochrolechia minuta (Degel.) T. Sprib., Steineropsis laceratula (Hue) T. Sprib. & Ekman and Toensbergia geminipara (Th. Fr.) T. Sprib. & Resl. Thirty-eight taxa are new to North America and 93 additional taxa new to Alaska. We use four to eight DNA loci to validate the placement of ten of the new species in the orders Baeomycetales, Ostropales, Lecanorales, Peltigerales, Pertusariales and the broader class Lecanoromycetes with maximum likelihood analyses. We present a total of 280 new fungal DNA sequences. The lichen inventory from Glacier Bay National Park represents the second largest number of lichens and associated fungi documented from an area of comparable size and the largest to date in North America. Coming from almost 60°N, these results again underline the potential for high lichen diversity in high latitude ecosystems.

Hung. 57, 2017, 57–82 DOI: 10.1556/068.2017.57.1.5 DANIELA URBANOVÁ LATIN CURSE TEXTS: MEDITERRANEAN TRADITION AND LOCAL DIVERSITY Summary: There are altogether about six hundred Latin curse texts, most of which are inscribed on lead tablets. The extant Latin defixiones are attested from the 2nd cent. BCE to the end of the 4th and begin- ning of the 5th century. However, the number of extant tablets is certainly not final, which is clear from the new findings in Mainz recently published by Blänsdorf (2012, 34 tablets),1 the evidence found in the fountain dedicated to Anna Perenna in Rome 2012, (26 tablets and other inscribed magical items),2 or the new findings in Pannonia (Barta 2009).3 The curse tablets were addressed exclusively to the supernatural powers, so their authors usually hid them very well to be banished from the eyes of mortals; not to speak of the randomness of the archaeological findings. Thus, it can be assumed that the preserved defixiones are only a fragment of the overall ancient production. Remarkable diversities in cursing practice can be found when comparing the preserved defixiones from particular provinces of the Roman Empire and their specific features, as this contribution wants to show. Key words: Curses with their language, formulas, and content representing a particular Mediterranean tradi- tion documented in Greek, Latin, Egyptian Coptic, as well as Oscan curse tablets, Latin curse tablets, curse tax- onomy, specific features of curse tablets from Italy, Africa, Britannia, northern provinces of the Roman Empire There are about 1600 defixiones known today from the entire ancient world dated from the 5th century BCE up to the 5th century CE, which makes a whole millennium.

  • Lichen Functional Trait Variation Along an East-West Climatic Gradient in Oregon and Among Habitats in Katmai National Park, Alaska
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Kaleigh Spickerman for the degree of Master of Science in Botany and Plant Pathology presented on June 11, 2015 Title: Lichen Functional Trait Variation Along an East-West Climatic Gradient in Oregon and Among Habitats in Katmai National Park, Alaska Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Bruce McCune Functional traits of vascular plants have been an important component of ecological studies for a number of years; however, in more recent times vascular plant ecologists have begun to formalize a set of key traits and universal system of trait measurement. Many recent studies hypothesize global generality of trait patterns, which would allow for comparison among ecosystems and biomes and provide a foundation for general rules and theories, the so-called “Holy Grail” of ecology. However, the majority of these studies focus on functional trait patterns of vascular plants, with a minority examining the patterns of cryptograms such as lichens. Lichens are an important component of many ecosystems due to their contributions to biodiversity and their key ecosystem services, such as contributions to mineral and hydrological cycles and ecosystem food webs. Lichens are also of special interest because of their reliance on atmospheric deposition for nutrients and water, which makes them particularly sensitive to air pollution. Therefore, they are often used as bioindicators of air pollution, climate change, and general ecosystem health. This thesis examines the functional trait patterns of lichens in two contrasting regions with fundamentally different kinds of data. To better understand the patterns of lichen functional traits, we examined reproductive, morphological, and chemical trait variation along precipitation and temperature gradients in Oregon.

    Persoonia 39, 2017: 91–117 ISSN (Online) 1878-9080 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/pimj RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/persoonia.2017.39.05 Phylogenetic placement within Lecanoromycetes of lichenicolous fungi associated with Cladonia and some other genera R. Pino-Bodas1,2, M.P. Zhurbenko3, S. Stenroos1 Key words Abstract Though most of the lichenicolous fungi belong to the Ascomycetes, their phylogenetic placement based on molecular data is lacking for numerous species. In this study the phylogenetic placement of 19 species of cladoniicolous species lichenicolous fungi was determined using four loci (LSU rDNA, SSU rDNA, ITS rDNA and mtSSU). The phylogenetic Pilocarpaceae analyses revealed that the studied lichenicolous fungi are widespread across the phylogeny of Lecanoromycetes. Protothelenellaceae One species is placed in Acarosporales, Sarcogyne sphaerospora; five species in Dactylosporaceae, Dactylo­ Scutula cladoniicola spora ahtii, D. deminuta, D. glaucoides, D. parasitica and Dactylospora sp.; four species belong to Lecanorales, Stictidaceae Lichenosticta alcicorniaria, Epicladonia simplex, E. stenospora and Scutula epiblastematica. The genus Epicladonia Stictis cladoniae is polyphyletic and the type E. sandstedei belongs to Leotiomycetes. Phaeopyxis punctum and Bachmanniomyces uncialicola form a well supported clade in the Ostropomycetidae. Epigloea soleiformis is related to Arthrorhaphis and Anzina. Four species are placed in Ostropales, Corticifraga peltigerae, Cryptodiscus epicladonia, C. galaninae and C. cladoniicola

Peabody Drive, Champaign, IL 61820, USA Received 9 June 2004; revised 14 October 2004 Available online 1 January 2005 Abstract The inoperculate euascomycetes are Wlamentous fungi that form saprobic, parasitic, and symbiotic associations with a wide vari- ety of animals, plants, cyanobacteria, and other fungi. The higher-level relationships of this economically important group have been unsettled for over 100 years. A data set of 55 species was assembled including sequence data from nuclear and mitochondrial small and large subunit rDNAs for each taxon; 83 new sequences were obtained for this study. Parsimony and Bayesian analyses were per- formed using the four-region data set and all 14 possible subpartitions of the data. The mitochondrial LSU rDNA was used for the Wrst time in a higher-level phylogenetic study of ascomycetes and its use in concatenated analyses is supported. The classes that were recognized in Leotiomyceta ( D inoperculate euascomycetes) in a classiWcation by Eriksson and Winka [Myconet 1 (1997) 1] are strongly supported as monophyletic. The following classes formed strongly supported sister-groups: Arthoniomycetes and Doth- ideomycetes, Chaetothyriomycetes and Eurotiomycetes, and Leotiomycetes and Sordariomycetes.

  • Unpublished Conjectures at Leiden on the Greek Dramatists P
    Unpublished Conjectures at Leiden on the Greek Dramatists P. J. Finglass N THE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY at Leiden there are many un- published autograph manuscripts and marginalia in printed editions which contain numerous conjectures on the Greek I 1 dramatists. In July 2007 and July 2008 I spent a total of ten days examining some of them. The results are presented in this article, which is divided into four parts: I, The conjectures themselves; II, An assessment of the consequences of this discovery; III, An investigation into why Valckenaer never published his extensive work on Sophocles; IV, The fate of other manuscripts on Greek drama written by Valckenaer and Pierson. I. The conjectures The manuscripts and marginalia present dozens of conjec- tures which anticipate the work of later scholars, or which have subsequently appeared in manuscripts uncollated at that time,2 1 The manuscripts are catalogued in [P. C. Molhuysen], Codices Biblio- thecae Publicae Latini (Codices Manuscripti III [Leiden 1912]: “BPL” in the manuscript shelfmarks) and online (see under http://ub.leidenuniv.nl/ collecties/bijzonder/ [checked 20th February 2009]). The online book cat- alogue (U–CAT) records whether a given volume has scholarly marginalia, and its author (for a given entry click on “Show” next to “Availability”). 2 Particular caution is required with this kind of anticipatory conjecture, since we cannot always tell which manuscripts were available to scholars at different times.

  • Channel Islands Checklist of Lichens
    Opuscula Philolichenum, 11: 145-302. 2012. *pdf effectively published online 23October2012 via (http://sweetgum.nybg.org/philolichenum/) The Annotated Checklist of Lichens, Lichenicolous and Allied Fungi of Channel Islands National Park 1 2 KERRY KNUDSEN AND JANA KOCOURKOVÁ ABSTRACT. – For Channel Islands National Park, at the beginning of the 21st century, a preliminary baseline of diversity of 504 taxa in 152 genera and 56 families is established, comprising 448 lichens, 48 lichenicolous fungi, and 8 allied fungi. Verrucaria othmarii K. Knudsen & L. Arcadia nom. nov. is proposed for the illegitimate name V. rupicola (B. de Lesd.) Breuss, concurrently a neotype is also designated. Placidium boccanum is reported new for North America and California. Bacidia coprodes and Polycoccum pulvinatum are reported new for California. Catillaria subviridis is verified as occurring in California. Acarospora rhabarbarina is no longer recognized as occurring in North America. Seven species are considered endemic to Channel Islands National Park: Arthonia madreana, Caloplaca obamae, Dacampia lecaniae, Lecania caloplacicola, Lecania ryaniana, Plectocarpon nashii and Verrucaria aspecta.
