Zhurbenko M.P. (2022): Sclerococcum knudsenii (Ascomycota, Sclerococcales), a new lichenicolous fungus on Polycauliona bolacina from California - Herzogia, 35(1): 131–137

Sclerococcum knudsenii, a lichenicolous discomycete growing on Polycauliona bolacina, is described as new to science from California. The species is characterized by aseptate ascospores, not previously known in this genus, and polyspored asci. An updated key to the eight accepted polyspored species of Sclerococcum is provided. Key words: key, lichen-dwelling fungi, taxonomy, U.S.A. Read more...

Türk R., Berger F., Berger A., Berger M., Cezanne R., Dolnik C., Eichler M., Gruber J.P., Grünberg H., Hafellner J., Klüssendorf J., Neumann P., Otte V., Schultz M., Stapper N., Teuber D., Thüs H. & Weber L. (2022): Flechten und lichenicole Pilze im UNESCO-Biosphärenpark Salzburger Lungau (BLAM-Exkursion 2019) - Herzogia, 35(1): 61–104

The list of lichens and lichenicolous fungi determined in the course of the 2019 BLAM excursion to the Lungau biosphere reserve is presented with their substrates. The high number of detected taxa in the nine study areas – 546 lichen taxa and 69 lichenicolous fungi – indicates the importance of the Lungau as a refuge for lichen taxa endangered elsewhere in Europe. Significant lichen localities for amphibian lichens and Verrucariaceae include the rapids of the Lonka River in the Weißpriach … Read more...

Christensen S.N. (2022): Contribution to the knowledge of the lichenized mycota of the East Aegeanis land Kos, Dodekanisos island group, Greece - Herzogia, 35(1): 41–60

One hundred and sixteen taxa are reported from Kos. One species, Candelariella subdeflexa, is new for Greece and 54 are new for Kos. The number of lichen species known from Kos is thus raised from 227 to 282. The distribution in the Aegean of the lichens new for Kos is briefly discussed. Contrary to what is observed for vascular plants, an Asian element among the lichens recorded from Kos is not detected. The species composition of different trees and substrata is presented, including lichens … Read more...

Christensen S.N. (2022): Umbilicaria subpolyphylla Oxner: notes on its morphology and ecology, and new records for Italy and Greece - Herzogia, 35(1): 32–40

Variation in morphology and colour of Umbilicaria subpolyphylla is illustrated and discussed, and its ecology is examined. It is reported from Sicily and Macedonia as new for Italy and Greece, respectively, and its European distribution is mapped. Key words: Greece, Italy, Leptochidium albociliatum, lichen-forming fungi, polymorphism, Umbilicaria. Read more...

Bauer N., Hüvös-Récsi A., Lőkös L. & Farkas E. (2022): A new steppe element in the Vienna Basin, the first record of Xanthoparmelia pulvinaris (Parmeliaceae) for Austria - Herzogia, 35(1): 22–31

The first observation of Xanthoparmelia pulvinaris in Austria is reported. The soil-dwelling lichen species was found in significant amounts (~1,000 thalli) in the eastern periphery of the Vienna Basin at two locations in the Hainburg Hills. The typical habitats are basic rocky grassland patches on flat or low-slope plateau areas of dolomite hills. The occurrence of the species is significant from a biogeographical point of view, as it supports the assumption that the region belongs to the Pannonicum … Read more...

Fałtynowicz W. (2022): Participation and role of German lichenologists in understanding the lichen biota of the areas currently within the borders of Poland - Herzogia, 35(1): 6–21

German naturalists initiated lichenological research in the areas lying within the Polish borders as early as in the 17th century. For over 200 years of their activity, they have published over 100 books and articles on lichens, making a significant contribution to the knowledge of the lichen biota of Poland. The results of their research, together with numerous preserved herbarium collections, constitute important documentation and comparative material, which is still used by Polish lichenologists. … Read more...

Inashvili Ts., Kupradze I. & Batsatsashvili K. (2022): A revised catalog of lichens of Georgia (South Caucasus) - Acta Mycologica, 57: 571 [46 p.]

A revised lichen catalog for Georgia, the South Caucasus, the second after 1986, is presented here. It is based on a literature survey and recent study of herbarium material. The list includes 713 species of lichens and nine species of nonlichenized fungi traditionally treated by lichenologists. As a basis for the present catalog, 106 literature sources reporting the first findings of the listed taxa in floristic regions of Georgia were used. The accepted taxa in bold are followed by references … Read more...

Dohi T., Iijima K., Machida M., Suno H., Ohmura Y., Fujiwara K., Kimura S. & Kanno F. (2022): Accumulation mechanisms of radiocaesium within lichen thallus tissues determined by means of in situ microscale localisation observation - PLoS ONE, 17(7): e0271035 [21 p.]

Many lichens are well known to accumulate radiocaesium and, thus acting as biomonitors of contamination levels. However, the actual localisation and chemical forms of radiocaesium in contaminated lichens have not yet been elucidated because, despite their high radioactivity, these forms are present in trace amounts as chemical entities. Here, we use autoradiography and demonstrate for the first time in situ microscale localisation of radiocaesium within thallus tissues to investigate the radiocaesium … Read more...

Øvstedal D.O. (2022): The genera Aspicilia and Oxneriaria (Megasporaceae) in Antarctica - Australasian Lichenology, 90: 53-56

Three species are reported from Antarctica: A. gremmenii Øvstedal sp. nov., A. narssaquensis (Lynge) Thomson, which is new to the Southern Hemisphere, and Oxneriaria virginea (Hue) S.Y.Kondr. & L.Lökös, which is already known from the region. Read more...
