Smith N.E.C. (2024): Call me by your name: Considerations of DNA sequences as types within wider discussions on fungal nomenclature - Mycology, 15(2): 137–143

This paper discusses the interaction between two substantial debates in taxonomy and nomenclature: The potential introduction of DNA-only types into fungal taxonomy and whether certain species names are offensive and should be changed. It argues that the acceptance of DNA sequences as types will likely lead to a proliferation of eponyms (species named after a person or persons) and that this will render them more likely to censure thus creating a point of instability in the fungal nomenclature. … Read more...

Ignatenko R.V., Nikerova K.M. & Ignatenko A.A. (2024): The main biogenic elements’ content in Lobaria pulmonaria cephalolichen thalli in different ontogenetic stages in the boreal forests of Karelia (Paanajärvi National Park) - Chemistry and Ecology, 40(7): 747–768

The analysis of the main biogenic elements in the thalli of the epiphytic cephalolichen Lobaria pulmonaria of different ontogenetic stages was conducted. Thallus for research was collected in the spruce forests of the Paanajärvi National Park, which disturbance age varied from 190 to 270 years from the tree trunks (living and dead) of Populus tremula, Salix caprea, Sorbus aucuparia, Betula spp. Chemical analysis of thalli samples showed that N content increased (r = 0.43, p = 0.0039) and … Read more...

Søchting U., Arup U., Ertz D., Lebouvier M., Fryday A., Bungartz F., Sancho L.G. & Perlmutter G. (2024): Hueidea – a genus to host former Huea species (Teloschistaceae, lichenized Ascomycota) - Opuscula Philolichenum, 23: 1–16

The name Huea, used for a lichen genus which hosts the two common Antarctic species H. cerussata and H. grisea (= H. coralligera), was formally recommended for rejection by the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi. Based on molecular data, we transfer these two species to the genus Hueidea. Hueidea was originally described in the family Fuscideaceae for the single alpine Australian endemic species Hueidea australiensis. However, our molecular data show it belongs to the Teloschistaceae and we here transfer … Read more...

Hardini J., Kasiamdari R.S., Santosa & Purnomo (2018): New records of Graphis (Graphidaceae, Ascomycota) in Bali Island, Indonesia - Biodiversitas, 19: 112–118

Graphis is a genus of the lichen family Graphidaceae, which is found living attached to Plumeria spp. trees as its substrate. The purpose of this study was to determine the species diversity of Graphis in Bali Island, Indonesia. This study was conducted between July 2014 and December 2014, at three locations, namely Denpasar City, Klungkung district, and Tabanan district, at the altitudes of 35 m, 69 m and 1269 m asl. respectively. Seven species were found as new records namely Graphis modesta, Graphis … Read more...

Bukabayeva Z., Abiyev S., Silybayeva B., Assanova U., Sharipkhanova A. & Sagdatkyzy B. (2023): Epiphytic and epigeal lichens as bioindicators of air pollution in the Burabay National Park, Kazakhstan - Biodiversitas, 24: 2701–2709

Lichens are recognized as a symbiotic association between a fungus (mycobiont) and a chlorophyll-containing partner (photobiont). Because lichens receive all their nutrients from the atmosphere, they are very sensitive to air quality and can be used as bioindicators of pollution by heavy metals, organic compounds and radioactive elements in the air. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of lichens as bioindicators of the heavy metal content in the air in the Burabay National Park, northern Kazakhstan. … Read more...

Belguidoum A., Haichour R., Lograda T. & Ramdani M. (2022): Biomonitoring of air pollution by lichen diversity in the urban area of Setif, Algeria - Biodiversitas, 23: 970–981

The use of living organisms in air quality monitoring has received increasing attention in recent years. Lichens, pioneer and colonizing organisms, are directly sensitive to environmental changes. This results in a loss of vitality or complete destruction of the thallus. The objective of this study is to assess and map the air quality of the Setif region, Algeria by lichens, using bio-indication indices. For air quality assessment, lichen species frequency, the Shannon-Wiener index, Atmospheric Purity … Read more...

Subbaiyan R., Ganesan A. & Dhanuskodi S. (2023): Ecolichenology of Eastern Ghats diversity against climatic fluctuations in Kolli Hills, India - Biodiversitas, 24: 625–635

Lichens are major components of earthbound and marine environments. A lichen is a symbiotic form of algae and fungi adapted to survive in different altitudes and environmental conditions. The lichen morphology is divided into three, based on their habitat: crustose, foliose, and fruticose lichens. Eastern Ghats (EG) contribute significantly to both the endemicity and species richness of the Indian region. However, EG forests are relatively unexplored and have received less conservation consideration … Read more...

Pasaribu N., Atni O.K. & Siregar J.P. (2023): Diversity and species composition of lichens across altitudinal range in the Batang Toru Forest, North Sumatra, Indonesia - Biodiversitas, 24: 2171–2178

West Block of Batang Toru Forest, located in North Tapanuli Regency, North Sumatra is one of the protection forest areas which has uniqueness and high biodiversity, one of them is the lichen. The information regarding the lichen species found in the West Block of Batang Toru Forest Research Station has never been reported. Its various types and distributions are unknown. This study aimed to observe lichen at the Batang Toru Forest Research Area, which was carried out from September 2021 to March … Read more...

Yulianti S.D., Mulyaningrum E.R. & Rahayu P. (2022): Species diversity and distribution area of lichen in Baturraden Botanical Garden, Banyumas - Journal of Biotechnology and Natural Science, 2(1): 1–9

Lichen is a symbiotic organism between fungi and algae which is used as a bioindicator of air pollution. This study aims to determine the diversity of species and distribution areas of lichen in Baturraden Botanical Garden, Banyumas Regency by using purposive random sampling method. Sampling was carried out at three stations, namely flora of Java forest (Javanese mountain plants), resin tree forest (damar forest), and natural forest. Based on the results of the research at the three observation stations, … Read more...

Panta K. (2022): Diversity of foliose lichens in Nepal - Prithvi Journal of Research and Innovation, 4(1): 24–33

Though lichen is an important biological entity, it has been overlooked in biodiversity assessment, research and priorities. To minimize this gap with the available resources and facilities, an initiation has been taken to enumerate the available lichen species in the premises of Prithvi Narayan Campus (PNC), Pokhara, Nepal. A survey has been conducted to explore mostly the foliose lichens diversity in 2022 and resulted 17 confirmed species belonging to 12 genera from 5 families. The Parmeliaceae … Read more...
