Moreno-Palacios M., Torres-Benítez A., Soto-Medina E., Sánchez M., Divakar P.K., Pereira I. & Gómez-Serranillos M.P. (2024): Corticolous lichen communities and their bioindication potential in an urban and peri-urban ecosystem in the central region of Colombia, Land, 13(7): 932 [16 p.]

The richness, composition, abundance, and correlation with the atmospheric oxide concentrations of the community of corticolous lichens in the urban and peri-urban areas of the city of Ibagué (Colombia) were evaluated, selecting 25 individuals of the four most abundant phorophyte species. Twenty-nine lichen taxa grouped in 13 families and 17 genera were recorded, with a higher lichen coverage and taxa richness in the urban area. A non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) analysis showed the conformation … Read more...

(2024): The roles of the anthraquinone parietin in the tolerance to desiccation of the lichen Xanthoria parietina: Physiology and anatomy of the pale and bright-orange thalli, International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 25(13): 7067 [11 p.]

Lichens are symbiotic organisms that effectively survive in harsh environments, including arid regions. Maintaining viability with an almost complete loss of water and the rapid restoration of metabolism during rehydration distinguishes lichens from most eukaryotic organisms. The lichen Xanthoria parietina is known to have high stress tolerance, possessing diverse defense mechanisms, including the presence of the bright-orange pigment parietin. While several studies have demonstrated the photoprotective … Read more...

Fryer E.R., Mulroy M., Hodge C., Eulensen-Wallace J.E., Dart J. & Rajakaruna N. (2024): A preliminary exploration of an understudied lichen flora: Lichens of the basin of Carrizo Plain National Monument, California, Evansia, 41(2): 35–46

While Carrizo Plain (California, USA) is a hotspot for rare and endangered species, little effort has been made to sample the lichen flora of the Plain. To assemble a preliminary checklist of lichens from the basin floor of Carrizo Plain, we sampled along a transect from the basin’s alkali complex to its western edge, as well as from clay slickspots with high sodium content, and a rocky site in the eastern Plain. We document a substantial lichen flora on the Plain and note several collections … Read more...

Kamyabi A.S. [Kamyabi Abkouh A.S.], Iranbakhsh A., Moniri M.H. [Haji Moniri M.] & Asri Y. (2023): New records of five Verrucaria species (Verrucariacaea [sic!], Ascomycota) from Iran, Feddes Repertorium, 134: 191–199

This study focused on the taxonomic evaluation of the genus Verrucaria Shrad (Ascomycota, Verrucariaceae) in northeast Iran. Lichen samples were collected from the Khorasan Razavi province and their morphological, anatomical, and ecological characteristics were investigated. According to the result, the species Verrucaria ahtii Pykälä, Launis and Myllys, Verrucaria cataleptoides (Nyl.) Nyl., Verrucaria dolosa Hepp., Verrucaria hochstetteri Fr., and Verrucaria muralis Ach., are new records … Read more...

A new species, Lecanora darelensis sp. nov. is described here from Darel Valley, Gilgit Baltistan, Pakistan. A comparative morpho-anatomical, chemical study and ITSbased molecular analyses confirmed the position of new species within the genus Lecanora. The new taxon is phylogenetically closely related to L. argopholis. The former can be distinguished from latter in having pale yellowish green upper surface (vs yellowish white), larger apothecial disc 0.5–1.5 mm (vs c. 1.2 mm), brown, plane … Read more...

Furmanek Ł., Czarnota P., Tekiela A.. Kapusta I. & Seaward M.R.D. (2024): A spectrophotometric analysis of extracted water-soluble phenolic metabolites of lichens, Planta, 260: 40 [19 p.]

The aims were (i) to test the hypothesis on the potential solubility of lichen phenolic compounds using rainwater under conditions that partly reflect the natural environment and (ii) to propose new and effective methods for the water extraction of lichen substances. The results of spectrophotometric analyses of total phenolic metabolites in rainwater-based extracts from epigeic and epiphytic lichens, employing the Folin–Ciocalteu (F.–C.) method, are presented. The water solvent was tested at … Read more...
