Revisions of British and Irish Lichens Volume 17 September 2021 Baeomycetales: Xylographaceae Cover image: Lithographa tesserata, Glacier Bay, Alaska. Image copyright Måns Svensson, Museum of Evolution, Uppsala University. Revisions of British and Irish Lichens is a free-to-access serial publication under the auspices of the British Lichen Society, that charts changes in our understanding of the lichens and lichenicolous fungi of Great Britain and Ireland. Each volume will be devoted to a particular family (or group of families), and will include descriptions, keys, habitat and distribution data for all the species included. The maps are based on information from the BLS Lichen Database, that also includes data from the historical Mapping Scheme and the Lichen Ireland database. The choice of subject for each volume will depend on the extent of changes in classification for the families concerned, and the number of newly recognized species since previous treatments. To date, accounts of lichens from our region have been published in book form. However, the time taken to compile new printed editions of the entire lichen biota of Britain and Ireland is extensive, and many parts are out-of-date even as they are published. Issuing updates as a serial electronic publication means that important changes in understanding of our lichens can be made available with a shorter delay. The accounts may also be compiled at intervals into complete printed accounts, as new editions of the Lichens of Great Britain and Ireland. Editorial Board Dr P.F.

(1888) Thallus crustose, effuse, areolate, granular or of goniocysts, often immersed within the substratum. Photobiont chlorococcoid, sometimes lichenicolous but with an independent thallus. Isidia or soralia present in some species. Ascomata roundish or angular to linear, usually ± innate, sometimes strongly melanized, with an exposed or nearly concealed disc, sometimes contorted, gyrose or umbonate. Thalline margin absent. True exciple of interwoven hyphae, pigmented, sometimes friable and carbonaceous, not amyloid. Hymenium usually hemiamyloid, rarely euamyloid, sometimes with brown pigmentation. Hamathecium of unbranched or branched paraphyses, sometimes moniliform above, the apices sometimes swollen and pigmented. Asci clavate to cylindrical, Lambiella-type or Trapelia-type. Ascospores aseptate, often thin-walled, colourless, broadly to narrowly ellipsoidal. Conidiomata pycnidia, globose, part-immersed to superficial. Conidia filiform and curved or bacillar. Four genera are included (Lücking et al. 2016), all of which occur in Great Britain and Ireland. The family occupies a clade sister to the Trapeliaceae (Resl et al. 2015) within the Baeomycetales (Kraichak et al. 2018, Lücking 2019). The type species of Elixia (Elixiaceae) was once placed within Ptychographa but has a different ascus structure (Lumbsch 1997) with blueing in Lugol’s iodine restricted to a narrow band at the base of the tholus, and is now assigned to the Umbilicariales.

Ptychographa LAMBIELLA Hertel (1984) Thallus (where present) effuse, continuous or areolate, sometimes ± papillate or tuberculate, occasionally endosubstratal and then inconspicuous, pale to dark grey, brownish or black, matt, closely adnate to the substratum, sometimes minutely isidiate or granular; areoles convex to strongly bullate; prothallus mostly undifferentiated, or black, effuse, marginal and/or visible between the areoles; medulla I– or I+ violet (in non-British species). Photobiont chlorococcoid, some species lichenicolous but retaining an independent thallus. Punctiform soralia present in one species, with dark brown soredia. Apothecia lecideine, roundish to lobate or elongate, sessile to basally constricted or rarely innate; disc black, flat, often gyrose; true exciple prominent, persistent, sometimes flexuose, 3 usually distinctly elevated above the level of the disc. Epithecium greenish to golden or dark brown. Hymenium colourless or green-tinged below. Hamathecium of branched and anastomosed paraphyses, usually moniliform above. Hypothecium usually brownish. Asci broadly clavate, mostly Lambiella-type, with a KI+ blue tholus with a funnel-shaped central unstained region, and a small obconical apical KI+ blue dome. Ascospores broadly ellipsoidal to ovoid, sometimes thin-walled and easily misshapen, colourless but with occasional spores discoloured brownish. Conidiomata pycnidia, brown to black, sessile or partly immersed. Conidia bacillar, aseptate, colourless. Ecology: on bark or siliceous rock, some species lichenicolous or overgrowing crustose lichens or mosses. Introduced by Hertel (1984) for the southern circum-polar species Lambiella psephota, (subsequently reported from the Arctic), but soon after placed into synonymy with Rimularia (Trapeliaceae). The genus was re-established by Spribille et al. (2014) and Resl et al. (2015) with molecular support. Important morphological features include the apothecia surrounded by a rim-like exciple and the branched and anastomosing paraphyses that are moniliform above. Rimularia differs by asci with a narrow central non-staining tube within the KI+ blue tholus (apical dome) in addition to the features described for Lambiella (the difference is subtle and intermediates occur; see Hertel & Rambold 1990, Lumbsch 1997), and thalli that lack depsidones (Resl et al. 2015). Lambiella species are also included in the key to Rimularia (q.v.). Literature Giavarini & David (2009), Hertel (1984), Hertel & Rambold (1990), Lumbsch (1997), Resl et al. (2015), Spribille et al.

The study includes a representative fraction (presumably about 80%) of the known species diversity of the Umbilicariaceae s.str. and is based on the phylograms obtained using maximum likelihood and a Bayesian phylogenetic inference framework. The analyses resulted in the recognition of eight well-supported clades, delimited by a combination of morphological and chemical features. None of the previous classifications within Umbilicariaceae s.str. were supported by the phylogenetic analyses. The distribution of the diagnostic morphological and chemical traits against the molecular phylogenetic topology revealed the following patterns of evolution: (1) Rhizinomorphs were gained at least four times independently and are lacking in most clades grouping in the proximity of Lasallia. (2) Asexual reproductive structures, i.e., thalloconidia and lichenized dispersal units, appear more or less mutually exclusive, being restricted to different clades.

  • An Evolving Phylogenetically Based Taxonomy of Lichens and Allied Fungi

    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.

In present study, molecular investigations of the internal transcribed spacer of the nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS nrDNA) region were conducted to analyze the genetic diversity of Umbilicaria esculenta and U. muehlenbergii together with their associated green algae. Result: It was here demonstrated that the reproductive strategy is a principal reason for fungal selectivity to algae. U. muehlenbergii, which disperses via sexual spores, exhibits lower selectivity to its photosynthetic partners than U. esculenta, which has a vegetative reproductive strategy. The difference of genotypic diversity (both fungal and algal) between these two Umbilicaria species is low, although their nucleotide diversity can vary greatly. Conclusions: The present study illustrates that lichen-forming fungi with sexual reproductive strategies are less selective with respect to their photobionts; and reveals that both sexual and vegetative reproduction allow lichens to generate similar amounts of diversity to adapt to the environments. The current study will be helpful for elucidating how lichens with different reproductive strategies adapt to changing environments. Keywords: AMOVA, Haplotype, Lichen, Mycobiont, Photobiont, Phylogenetic analysis Background communities, there seems to be a photobiont pool that Lichens are intimate and long-lived symbioses between allows different lichen species to share their photobionts photobionts (green alga or cyanobacteria) and myco- [3].

    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.

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.
