A Taxonomic Study of the Calcicolous Endolitic Species of the Genus Verrucaria (Ascomycotina, Verrucariales) with the Lid-Like and Radiately Opening Involucrellum A taxonomic study of the calcicolous endolitic species of the genus Verrucaria (Ascomycotina, Verrucariales) with the lid-like and radiately opening involucrellum. Josef Halda Muzeum a galerie Orlických hor, Jiráskova 2, 516 01 Rychnov n. Kn., [email protected] Abstract This study describes anatomy, ontogenesis and history of taxonomy of calcicolous endolitic species of the genus Verrucaria, which have been treated as Bagliettoa and Protobagliettoa (Verrucaria sect. Sphinctrina), and that are characterized by black, flat (lid-like) radiate crackling involucrellum, completely endolitic thallus and presence of macrosferoid cells formed by hy- phae in the lower part of the medullar layer. Most of the revised taxa were described by Servít (more than 100), and show a large taxo- nomic heterogeneity. Consequently, a detailed study had to be done to unify the group again. The characteristic characters have been recognized as the size and shape of the involucrellum and the development of the cortex layer. Following diacritic characters were recognized just morphological variations that originate regularly during ontogenesis. After revision the num- ber of species reducedfrom more than twenty to four: V. baldensis, V. limborioides, V. marmorea and V. parmigerella. The genus Bagliettoa differs from the genus Verrucaria in different forming of involucrellum, other significant characters (ascus morphology and further structures of hymenium), usually used to define lichen genera are identical. Therefore, a new section Bagliettoa has been estab- lished within the genus Verrucaria, which is well defined by the way of opening and shape of involucrellum. The genus Protobagliettoa has been separated from the genus Bagliettoa artifi- cially for the absence of ascospores in 1955 by Servít. The separation of genera Bagliettoa and Protobagliettoa to the family Bagliettoaceae is formal too, because other families in Verrucariales have not been established afterwards on the base of different structure of involucrellum. There- fore, the revision disapproves such unjustified separation and recommends to keep all the studied species of genus Verrucaria (Verrucariaceae). From the practical point of view, the revi- sion can help to determine all of the mentioned species outside. Eleven species (Limboria sphinctrina Duf., Protobagliettoa lactea (Arnold) Servít, V. bosniaca Servít, V. dalmatica Servít, V. grummanni Servít, V. gyelnikii Servít, V. parmigera J. Steiner, V. serbica Servít, V. steineri Kuan, V. subconcentrica (J. Steiner) Servít and V. suzaeana Servít), and also other 75 varieties and forms, were synonymized with the species V. baldensis A. Massal. Two species (V. ceracea J. Steiner and V. quarnerica Zahlbr.) and 4 varieties or forms were restricted to synonyms of the V. limborioides (A. Massal.) Clauzade & Roux. The species V. cazzae Zahlbr., one of its varieties, and one of its forms were restricted to synonyms of the species V. marmorea (Scop.) Arnold. Two species (P. kutakiana Servít and V. sphinctrinella Zschacke) and 20 variet- ies or forms were restricted to the synonyms of the species V. parmigerella Zahlbr. A new neotype and an isoneotype of the species V. marmorea there have been established, 19 taxa have been lectotypified (Protobagliettoa lactea (Arnold) Servít var. ochracea Servít, Verrucaria bagliettoaeformis (Hazsl.)

General part I. Introduction The aim of this study is to bring new knowledge on ascoma morphology and variability of thallus of selected endolitic species of the genus Verrucaria (V. baldensis, V. limborioides, V. marmorea and V. parmigerella) after more than fifty years, that could help to clarify their taxonomy and thus contribute to defining and distribution of the individual species that is so little known about, obtain a summarizing outline and revise interspecific and infraspecific relations of species, their variations and forms that are mainly recognized as morphological variations. The Bagliettoa group contains a large number of described taxa that are hardly recognized in field as well as microscopically. Further Zschackes (1933-1934) and

Eine kurze Übersicht über relevante Literatur zur Gattung und ihrer Verwandtschaft ist beigefügt. Agonimia ZAHLBR. was introduced by ZAHLBRUCKNER (1909) for Agonimia tristicula (NYL.) ZAHLBR. and his newly described A. latzelii ZAHLBR. (now included within A. tristicula). It was not earlier than 1978 that another species was added to the genus: A. octospora (COPPINS & JAMES 1978). Later a handful of species previously treated in other genera (Polyblastia MASSAL., Physcia (SCHREB.) MICHX., Omphalina QUÉL.) have been transferred to Agonimia (COPPINS & al. 1992, VĚZDA 1997, SÉRUSIAUX & al. 1999, LÜCKING & MONCADA 2017, NIMIS & al. 2018). A couple of additional species have been described as new quite recently (SÉRUSIAUX & al. 1999; CZARNOTA & COP- PINS 2000; KASHIWADANI 2008; DYMYTROVA & al. 2011; GUZOW-KRZEMIŃSKA & al. 2012; APTROOT & CÁCERES 2013; HARADA 2013; KONDRATYUK 2015; KONDRATYUK & al. 2015, 2016, 2018; MCCARTHY & ELIX 2018).

Agonimia ZAHLBR. is a Verrucariacean genus similar to Polyblastia A. MASSAL. and differs from the latter by the 2- or 3-layered exciple, the lack of an involucrellum and consistently colourless ascospores. The thallus consists of aggregations of goniocysts or small squamules, the cortical cells of which are papillate in most species (ORANGE &PURVIS 2009).

Normandina simodensis is placed basal in a well-supported clade with N. pulchella and N. acroglypta, thus confirming Normandina as a monophyletic genus within Verrucariaceae. Norman- dina species agree in general ascoma morphology but differ in thallus structure and the mode of vegetative reproduction: crustose and sorediate in N. acroglypta; squamulose and sorediate in N. pulchella; and squamulose and esorediate in N. simodensis. Key words : Bayesian, growth form, Japan, maximum likelihood, pyrenocarpous lichens, taxonomy.

  • Notes on the Status and Typification of Some Names of Lichens Described from Greece
    Opuscula Philolichenum, 18: 1-10. 2019. *pdf effectively published online 29January2019 via (http://sweetgum.nybg.org/philolichenum/) Notes on the status and typification of some names of lichens described from Greece LINDA IN ARCADIA1 ABSTRACT. – The names Borrera ciliaris var. glabrissima Bory, B. ciliaris var. nigrescens Bory, B. ciliaris var. tomentella Bory, Collema sublimosum J. Steiner and Verrucaria pinguis J. Steiner, all described from Greece, are discussed and lectotypified. A previous "lectotypification" of Verrucaria pinguis f. alocizoides is in fact a neotypification, but that is regarded as a correctable error. The names Parmelia conspersa var. complicata Bory and Ramalina farinacea var. nuda Bory are discussed but not typified. KEYWORDS. – Anaptychia, Europe, historical botany, nomenclature, taxonomy, Xanthoparmelia. INTRODUCTION The lichen biota of Greece is very rich, a consequence of the great topographic and climatic variety present within the country (Grove & Rackham 2001, Strid & Tan 1997), together with a varied geology (Higgins & Higgins 1996, Mountrakis 1995, Papanikolaou 2015). Human exploitation of the land for many millennia (e.g. Renfrew 1972) has certainly modified the biota, probably by reducing forest cover, especially in the lowlands, but most of the country is still covered by natural or at least semi-natural vegetation. Over 1420 species of lichens, lichenicolous and allied fungi have been reported from Greece (http://www.lichensofgreece.com/checklist), and hundreds more probably are present but not yet reported. However, as in much of southeastern Europe and the eastern Mediterranean, the lichens have received little serious study. Much of our knowledge comes from reports that are over a century old. A further difficulty is taxonomic in nature.

Independent phylogenetic analyses of a multigene dataset (RPB1, mtSSU, nuLSU) and an ITS- dataset combined with morphological and ecological characters confirm that the Verrucaria elaeomelaena agg. consists of several cryptic taxa. It includes V. elaeomelaena s.str. with mostly grey to mid-brown thalli and transparent exciple base which cannot be distinguished morphologically from several other unnamed clades from low elevations, the semi-cryptic V. humida spec. nov., which is characterised by smaller perithecia, shorter and more elongated spores compared to other species in this group and V.

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.

ERLÄUTERUNGEN 2000 Kartenblätter Gemmenich-Botzelaar n° 35/5-6 Henri-Chapelle - Raeren n° 43/1-2 Petergensfeld - Lammersdorf n° 43/3-4 Zusammenfassung Die Kartenblätter Henri-Chapelle - Raeren, Petergens- feld - Lammersdorf und Gemmenich-Botzelaar befinden sich im Nordosten der Provinz Lüttich. Drei Haupteinheiten, die mehr oder weniger den geographischen Unterteilungen ent- sprechen, lassen sich unterscheiden: - im südöstlichen Teil schliessen die kambrischen und ordovi- zischen Gesteine des Stavelot Massivs auf, die durch die ka- ledonische und die variszische Orogenese gefaltet und ge- stört wurden. Dieses Gebiet entspricht den Ausläufern der Lütticher Ardennen; - im Nordwesten des Stavelot Massivs ist ein Grossteil des kartographisch aufgeschlossenenen Gebietes durch Gestei- ne aufgebaut, die vom Unterdevon bis ins Namür reichen und die durch die variszische Gebirgsbildung gefaltet und gestört wurden.
