Zhou J. & Ren Q. (2018): Varicellaria emeiensis sp. nov. and a review of the genus in China, Mycotaxon, 133(1): 71–77

A new species, Varicellaria emeiensis, is described from Sichuan Province, southwest China. It is characterized by its lecanorate apothecia with heavily white-pruinose discs, 8-spored ascus, and the presence of lecanoric acid. Additional material is reported for four Varicellaria species previously recorded from China, and a key is provided to the five species known from China. Key words—Ochrolechiaceae, Pertusariales, lichens, taxonomy. Read more...

Tønsberg T. (2018): Varicellaria lactea new to the U.S.A. from Alaska, Opuscula Philolichenum, 17: 1–5

Varicellaria lactea is reported new to the U.S.A. from Katmai National Park and Preserve and Lake Clark National Park, both in Alaska. It was found on slightly overhanging rock walls on lake shores. The specimens agree well morphologically and chemically with material from Scandinavia (Norway) used for comparison. Keywords. – Crustose lichens, soralia, range extension, Lepra. Read more...

Lumbsch H.T. & Türk R. (2022): Varicellaria velata occurs in the Alps, Herzogia, 35(1): 74–76

Varicellaria velata in its current circumscription has a worldwide distribution and is common in tropical and subtropical habitats but also extends into the temperate zone. In Europe it has a subatlantic distribution and has also been recorded from a single locality in Austria for the Alps. This record has recently been interpreted as dubious and consequently, the species was not listed in recent checklists of the Alps and Austria. We here report a new collection of this species from Austria … Read more...

Wagner H.H., Holderegger R., Werth S., Gugerli F., Hoebee S.E. & Scheidegger C. (2005): Variogram Analysis of the Spatial Genetic Structure of Continuous populations using multilocus microsatellite data, Genetics, 169: 1739-1752

A geostatistical perspective on spatial genetic structure may explain methodological issues of quantifying spatial genetic structure and suggest new approaches to addressing them. We use a variogram approach to (i) derive a spatial partitioning of molecular variance, gene diversity, and genotypic diversity for microsatellite data under the infinite allele model (IAM) and the stepwise mutation model (SMM), (ii) develop a weighting of sampling units to reflect ploidy levels or multiple sampling of … Read more...

Baniya C.B. (2010): Vascular and cryptogam richness in the world’s highest alpine zone, Tibet, Mountain Research and Development, 30: 275-281

This study explores the elevational richness patterns of vascular and cryptogam species in the highest alpine zone in the world, the Tibet/Xizang Autonomous Region (78u259–99u069E, 26u509–36u539N). The data are based on the published flora for vascular plants, bryophytes, and lichens. Elevational ranges have been interpolated for each species recorded in the flora at altitudes between 4500 and 6000 m into 16 elevational bands of 100 m each. A species is assumed to be present at … Read more...

Edgin B., Shimp J., Allen D., Cawn J., McClain W.E. & Ebinger J.E. (2004): Vascular flora of Gray’s Post Oak Woodland, Saline County, Illinois, Southeastern Naturalist, 3(4): 733–744

Gray's Post Oak Woodland is an open wooded community located on the western edge of the Wabash Border Natural Division about 9 km southeast of Harrisburg, Saline County, IL. Associated with a clayey soil missing most of the surface layer, the trees were stunted and gnarled. Quercus stellata dominated the canopy, accounting for nearly all of the importance value. Although six other tree species were present, few individuals exceeded 15 cm dbh. The open understory contained few saplings, averaged … Read more...

Gillespie L.J., Sokoloff P.C., Levin G.A., Doubt J. & McMullin R.T. (2024): Vascular plant, bryophyte, and lichen biodiversity of Agguttinni Territorial Park, Baffin Island, Nunavut, Canada: an annotated species checklist of a new Arctic protected area, Check List, 20(2): 279-443

Agguttinni Territorial Park is a large, newly established park on the east-central coast of Baffin Island in Nunavut, Canada. Previous knowledge of the plant and lichen biodiversity was limited and based mostly on collections made during the 1950 Baffin Island Expedition. We conducted a ﬂoristic inventory of the park in 2021 and re-examined previous collections. We recorded 141 species of vascular plants belonging to 25 families, 69 species of bryophytes in 27 families, and 93 species of lichens … Read more...
