Notes on the Genus Polycoccum (Ascomycota, Dacampiaceae) In Lichenologist 35(2): 125–135 (2003) doi:10.1016/S0024-2829(03)00014-8 Notes on the genus Polycoccum (Ascomycota, Dacampiaceae)in Spain, with a key to the species Violeta ATIENZA, Vicent CALATAYUD and David L. HAWKSWORTH Abstract: Comments on and a key to the 13 Polycoccum species known in Spain are presented, including synopses of their world distributions. Amongst these is P. rubellianae sp. nov., a lichenicolous fungus growing on thalli of Caloplaca rubelliana in eastern Spain (Valencia). It has relatively small ascomata, the lower part pale brown, and also small ascospores which are coarsely verrucose and have a thick gelatinous sheath when young. The new species is associated with a Phoma-like anamorph. The identity and systematic position of P. opulentum requires further study as the name has been applied to di#erent species, and the occurrence of P. marmoratum in Spain is in need of confirmation. The Spanish record of P. arnoldii on Lecania cyrtella probably refers to another yet undescribed species. 2003 The British Lichen Society. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

ADVAITA, CALEB A. MORSE1,2 AND DOUGLAS LADD3 ABSTRACT. – A total of 154 lichens, four lichenicolous fungi, and one allied fungus were collected by the authors from 2004 to 2015 from Pipestone National Monument (PNM), in Pipestone County, on the Prairie Coteau of southwestern Minnesota. Twelve additional species collected by previous researchers, but not found by the authors, bring the total number of taxa known for PNM to 171. This represents a substantial increase over previous reports for PNM, likely due to increased intensity of field work, and also to the marked expansion of corticolous and anthropogenic substrates since the site was first surveyed in 1899. Reexamination of 116 vouchers deposited in MIN and the PNM herbarium led to the exclusion of 48 species previously reported from the site. Crustose lichens are the most common growth form, comprising 65% of the lichen diversity. Sioux Quartzite provided substrate for 43% of the lichen taxa collected. Saxicolous lichen communities were characterized by sampling four transects on cliff faces and low outcrops. An annotated checklist of the lichens of the site is provided, as well as a list of excluded taxa. We report 24 species (including 22 lichens and two lichenicolous fungi) new for Minnesota: Acarospora boulderensis, A. contigua, A. erythrophora, A. strigata, Agonimia opuntiella, Arthonia clemens, A. muscigena, Aspicilia americana, Bacidina delicata, Buellia tyrolensis, Caloplaca flavocitrina, C. lobulata, C.

  • <I>Lichenostigma Epirupestre</I> a New Lichenicolous Species On
    MYCOTAXON Volume 107, pp. 189–195 January–March 2009 Lichenostigma epirupestre, a new lichenicolous species on Pertusaria from Spain Sergio Pérez-Ortega1 & Vicent Calatayud2 [email protected] Departamento de Biología Vegetal II, Facultad de Farmacia Universidad Complutense de Madrid Plaza Ramón y Cajal, Ciudad Universitaria, ES-28040 Madrid, SPAIN 2Fundación CEAM C/ Charles R. Darwin 14, Parc Tecnològic, E–46980 Paterna, València, Spain Abstract—The new species Lichenostigma epirupestre is described from three localities in Central Spain, growing on Pertusaria pertusa var. rupestris. Remarks on its taxonomy and closely related species are made and a key to the species of Lichenostigma subgenus Lichenostigma is also included. Key words—Iberian Peninsula, lichenicolous fungi, lichens Introduction The genus Lichenostigma was introduced for L. maureri Hafellner (Hafellner 1982) and, since then, a total of 21 species (after www.indexfungorum.org) have been referred to it. Two subgenera are recognized: Lichenostigma and Lichenogramma (Navarro-Rosinés & Hafellner 1996, Calatayud et al. 2002). Species belonging to subgenus Lichenostigma are characterized by having cushion-like ascomata and by the absence of visible vegetative hyphae or strands connecting several ascomata on the surface of the thallus. Taxa included in subgenus Lichenogramma show rounded or elongate ascomata that are interconnected by brown hyphae or pluricellular strands. While most species can easily be referred to one of these two subgenera, a few species show some intermediate features. This is the case of species in which the rounded shape of the ascomata is typical of subgenus Lichenostigma, but developing immersed (not visible on the host thallus) brown vegetative hyphae, or others that only occasionally develop superficial hyphal strands but only occasionally (Calatayud & Barreno 2003, Halıcı & Hawksworth 2007).

MycoKeys 48: 55–65. https://doi.org/10.3897/mycokeys.48.33001 Abstract Biatora alnetorum S. Ekman & Tønsberg, a lichenised ascomycete in the family Ramalinaceae (Lecano- rales, Lecanoromycetes), is described as new to science. It is distinct from other species of Biatora in the combination of mainly three-septate ascospores, a crustose thallus forming distinctly delimited soralia that develop by disintegration of convex pustules and the production of atranorin in the thallus and apothecia. The species is known from the Pacific Northwest of North America, where it inhabits the smooth bark of Alnus alnobetula subsp. sinuata and A. rubra. Biatora alnetorum is also a new host for the lichenicolous ascomycete Sclerococcum toensbergii Diederich. Keywords Biatora flavopunctata, Biatora pallens, Lecania, BAli-Phy Introduction During field work in the Pacific Northwest of the United States and Canada in 1995– 2018, the second author came across a distinct crustose and sorediate lichen on the smooth bark of alders.

  • <I> Lecanoromycetes</I> of Lichenicolous Fungi Associated With
    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

(lichenised Ascomycetes: Ramalinaceae) in southern Australia Gintaras Kantvilasa & Pieter P.G. van den Boomb a Tasmanian Herbarium, Private Bag 4, Hobart, Tasmania 7001, Australia Email: [email protected] b Arafura 16, 5691JA Son, The Netherlands Email: [email protected] Abstract Four species of Lecania A.Massal. occurring on calcareous substrata in southern Australia are treated. Lecania maritima Kantvilas & van den Boom is described as new to science and is recorded from Kangaroo Island and Flinders Island. Lecania polycarpa (Müll.Arg.) Kantvilas & van den Boom, comb. nov., is an Australian endemic, known from Kangaroo Island, Flinders Island and the Victorian coast. Two further species are widely distributed, chiefly in temperate areas of the world: L. inundata (Hepp ex Körb.) M.Mayrhofer and L. turicensis (Hepp) Müll.Arg. are both reported for Tasmania for the first time; the former is also a new record for Victoria. The salient features of these four taxa are compared.
