På senare år har dialekterna blivit föremål för ett förnyat språkstruk- turellt-grammatiskt intresse. En i den växande raden av forskare som har applicerat modern språkvetenskaplig teori på nordiska dialekter är Erik Magnusson Petzell, som i sin artikel i denna volym behandlar verbböjning och ordföljd i en grupp dialekter i Viskadalen. Ett annat huvudspår i den mo- derna dialektologin är det interaktionella. Hit är att föra Caroline Sand- ströms bidrag , som rör dialekttalandes självbild och syn på herrskap i Pernå i Östra Nyland. Digital humaniora får ett allt större utrymme inom tidskriftens ämnesom- råden. Till detta nummer av Svenska landsmål och svenska landsmål bidrar Peter M. Broadwell, Peter Leonard och Timothy R. Tangherlini med en ar- tikel om upprepning av ordsekvenser i sägner och, framför allt, digitala me- toder för att undersöka fenomenet. Karin Gustavsson diskuterar i sitt bidrag det tidiga 1900-talets etnologiska fältarbeten och särskilt villkoren för kun- skapsproduktion, exemplifierat med 1922 års Norrbottensexpedition. Agne- ta Lilja undersöker en estlandsvensk kvinnas levnadsberättelse medan varg- lav, Letharia vulpina, som varggift diskuteras i Ingvar Svanbergs och Sabira Ståhlbergs etnobiologiska bidrag. Under 2016 och 2017 har två doktorsavhandlingar som på olika sätt be- handlar svenska dialekter lagts fram: Jannie Teinlers Dialekt där den nästan inte finns. En folklivingvistisk studie av dialektens sociala betydelse i ett standardspråksnära område (2016) och David Karlanders Authentic Lan- guage. Övdalsk, metapragmatic exchange and the margins of Sweden’s linguistic market (2017). Vi är mycket glada att här i artikelformat kunna publicera fakultetsopponenternas – Rune Røsstad resp. Judith T. Irvine – granskningar av dessa avhandlingar. Årets litteraturkrönika om svenska dialekter präglas till stor del av den omfångsrika konferensvolymen Ideologi, identitet, intervention (2017) för den tionde nordiska dialektologkonferensen som avhölls i Mariehamn på Åland i augusti 2014 (vilken också recenseras i föreliggande årgång). Denna konferensvolym är faktiskt så omfattande att blott ett urval av bidragen har kunnat beröras i krönikan.

Broadwell, Peter Leonard, and Timothy R. Tangherlini Abstract The repetition of phrases or entire sequences of words is a common feature in many folklore genres, including ballads, rhymes, and fairy tales. Often, these types of repetition are either tied to formal features of the genre, such as formula or refrains, or otherwise reinforced by various metrical constraints. Conversational genres, such as the legend, do not include the repetition of word sequences to the same degree, yet the extent to which word sequences appear in legend is an open question. Such repetitions may provide important information about individual storytellers’ repertoires, language use in a specific region, and the crystallization of language in storytelling. Using the Evald Tang Kristensen legend collection as a target corpus, we de- velop a method and user interface for the discovery of word sequence repetitions across tens of thousands of legends. The matches are deliberately “fuzzy”, thereby taking into account indi- vidual storytellers’ linguistic predilections, as well as the impact of editorial interventions. The method allows us to discover overlap between stories that share similarities even though tradi- tional classifiers would not consider the stories to be topically related. Keywords: legend, computational folkloristics, motifs, sequence alignment, machine learning, digital humanities, language. The interrelationship between individual story repertoire and overall legend tradition, particularly in the context of performance, can now be more readily addressed as large collections of legends are made accessible in machine- actionable form (Gunnell 2014; Skott 2017; Tangherlini & Broadwell 2014). An important, and open, question in the study of legend is whether tradition participants exhibit expressive consistencies in language within and across their individual story repertoires. These consistencies may be in- dicative of certain tradition-based phenomena, such as the crystallization of story elements into a specific linguistic form, or the use of formula as an integral part of the story itself. The recurrence of word sequences may reflect stylistic aspects of an individual’s storytelling or, on a broader scale, storytelling

Maria Grimm1*, Martin Grube2, Ulf Schiefelbein3, Daniela Zühlke1, Jörg Bernhardt1 and Katharina Riedel1 1 Institute of Microbiology, University Greifswald, Greifswald, Germany, 2 Institute of Plant Sciences, Karl-Franzens-University Graz, Graz, Austria, 3 Botanical Garden, University of Rostock, Rostock, Germany Lichens represent self-supporting symbioses, which occur in a wide range of terrestrial habitats and which contribute significantly to mineral cycling and energy flow at a global scale. Lichens usually grow much slower than higher plants. Nevertheless, lichens can contribute substantially to biomass production. This review focuses on the lichen symbiosis in general and especially on the model species Lobaria pulmonaria L. Hoffm., which is a large foliose lichen that occurs worldwide on tree trunks in undisturbed forests with long ecological continuity. In comparison to many other lichens, L. pulmonaria is less tolerant to desiccation and highly sensitive to air pollution. The name- giving mycobiont (belonging to the Ascomycota), provides a protective layer covering a layer of the green-algal photobiont (Dictyochloropsis reticulata) and interspersed cyanobacterial cell clusters (Nostoc spec.). Recently performed metaproteome analyses Edited by: confirm the partition of functions in lichen partnerships.

Det finns nu 1 956 tätorter i Sverige. År 2010 upphörde 29 områden som tätorter på grund av minskad befolkning. 12 tätorter slogs samman med annan tätort och i en tätort är andelen fritidshus för hög för att den skall klassificeras som tätort. Flest nya tätorter har tillkommit i Stockholms län (16 st) och Skåne län (10 st). En tätort definieras kortfattat som ett område med sammanhängande bebyggelse med högst 200 meter mellan husen och minst 200 invånare. Ingen hänsyn tas till kommun- eller länsgränser. 85 procent av landets befolkning bor i tätort År 2010 bodde 8 016 000 personer i tätorter, vilket motsvarar 85 procent av Sveriges hela befolkning. Tätortsbefolkningen ökade med 383 000 personer mellan 2005 och 2010. Störst har ökningen varit i Stockholms län, följt av Skå- ne och Västra Götaland län. Sju tätorter har fler än 100 000 invånare – Stockholm, Göteborg, Malmö, Upp- sala, Västerås, Örebro och Linköping. Där bor sammanlagt 28 procent av Sveri- ges befolkning. Av samtliga tätorter har 118 stycken fler än 10 000 invånare och 795 stycken färre än 500 invånare. Tätorterna upptar 1,3 procent av Sveriges landareal. Befolkningstätheten mätt som invånare per km2 har ökat från 1 446 till 1 491 under perioden.

Abstract: The 11th fascicle (20 numbers) of the exsiccata 'Licheni- colous Biota' is published. The issue contains material of 20 non- lichenized fungal taxa (16 teleomorphs of ascomycetes, 2 anamorphic states of ascomycetes, 2 basidiomycetes), including paratype material of Tremella graphidis Diederich et al. (no 269). Furthermore, collections of the type species of the following genera are distributed: Abrothallus (A. bertianus), Lichenostigma (L. maureri), Phacopsis (P. vulpina), Skyt- tea (S. nitschkei), and Telogalla (T. olivieri). *Institut für Pflanzenwissenschaften, NAWI Graz, Karl-Franzens-Universität, Holteigasse 6, A-8010 Graz, AUSTRIA. e-mail: [email protected] Introduction The exsiccata 'Lichenicolous Biota' is continued with fascicle 11 containing 20 numbers. The exsiccata covers all lichenicolous biota, i.e., it is open not only to non- lichenized and lichenized fungi, but also to myxomycetes, bacteria, and even ani- mals, whenever they cause a characteristic symptom on their host (e.g., discoloration or galls). Consequently, the exsiccata contains both highly host-specific and pluri- vorous species, as long as the individuals clearly grow upon a lichen and the col- lection is homogeneous, so that identical duplicates can be prepared. The five complete sets are sent to herbaria of the following regions: Central Europe (Graz [GZU]), Northern Europe (Uppsala [UPS]), Western Europe (Bruxelles [BR]), North America (New York [NY]), Australasia (Canberra [CANB]).

Little is known about the evolutionary relationships within the genus and between continents. Investigation of the photobiont(s) associated with sub-aquatic and terrestrial Dermatocarpon species may reveal habitat requirements of the photobiont and the ability for fungal species to share the same photobiont species under different habitat conditions. The focus of our study was to determine the relationship between Canadian and Austrian Dermatocarpon luridum var. luridum along with three additional sub-aquatic Dermatocarpon species, and to determine the species of photobionts that associate with D.

INTRODUCTION The lichens are present in many terrestrial ecosystems, they take an important part in the biodiversity of our natural environments through the many forms they have and the variety of environmental conditions they prefer. Compared to other circum-Mediterranean countries, Morocco offers an original climate and orography, which correspond to original flora and vegetation 2. The study of lichens in Morocco has been launched by Müller Argoviensis (1879, 1883). Thus, Since 1924, many important contributions on this subject have been published, Braun-Blanquet & Wilczek (1923) , Braun-Blanquet & Mayor 4, Mayor (1924), Bouly de Lesdain 3 and Emberger & Mayor 8, Egea 7, but these studies did not cover the entire country, although the number of species inventoried in Morocco is 1211 taxon among which 411 species collected in the Middle Atlas, Ajaj, A.

  • New Species and New Records of American Lichenicolous Fungi
    DHerzogiaIEDERICH 16: New(2003): species 41–90 and new records of American lichenicolous fungi 41 New species and new records of American lichenicolous fungi Paul DIEDERICH Abstract: DIEDERICH, P. 2003. New species and new records of American lichenicolous fungi. – Herzogia 16: 41–90. A total of 153 species of lichenicolous fungi are reported from America. Five species are described as new: Abrothallus pezizicola (on Cladonia peziziformis, USA), Lichenodiplis dendrographae (on Dendrographa, USA), Muellerella lecanactidis (on Lecanactis, USA), Stigmidium pseudopeltideae (on Peltigera, Europe and USA) and Tremella lethariae (on Letharia vulpina, Canada and USA). Six new combinations are proposed: Carbonea aggregantula (= Lecidea aggregantula), Lichenodiplis fallaciosa (= Laeviomyces fallaciosus), L. lecanoricola (= Laeviomyces lecanoricola), L. opegraphae (= Laeviomyces opegraphae), L. pertusariicola (= Spilomium pertusariicola, Laeviomyces pertusariicola) and Phacopsis fusca (= Phacopsis oxyspora var. fusca). The genus Laeviomyces is considered to be a synonym of Lichenodiplis, and a key to all known species of Lichenodiplis and Minutoexcipula is given. The genus Xenonectriella is regarded as monotypic, and all species except the type are provisionally kept in Pronectria. A study of the apothecial pigments does not support the distinction of Nesolechia and Phacopsis. The following 29 species are new for America: Abrothallus suecicus, Arthonia farinacea, Arthophacopsis parmeliarum, Carbonea supersparsa, Coniambigua phaeographidis, Diplolaeviopsis
