van der Kolk H.-J., van Dort K., van Herk K., Aptroot A., Van den Broeck D. & Sparrius L. (2021): Update Nederlandse namen korstmossen [Update Dutch lichen names], Buxbaumiella, 121: 31–33

[in Dutch with English abstract: ] A Dutch name is provided for lichen species that were found new in the Netherlands during the last two decades. For a few other species the Dutch name was changed. An overview of the new names and name changes is presented in a table. Read more...

van Dort K. & Verboom L. (2021): Geelberijpt boomspijkertje (Calicium adspersum), grof schorssteeltje (Chaenotheca phaeocephala) en andere bijzondere epifyten bij Paterswolde (Drenthe) [Calicium adspersum, Chaenotheca phaeocephala and many more rare and interesting epiphytic lichens on veteran trees near the village of Paterswolde, Province of (Drenthe (The Netherlands)], Buxbaumiella, 122: 17–21

[in Dutch with English abstract: ] A day trip to Paterswolde, a village in the very north of the province of Drenthe, once again demonstrated the exceptional importance of veteran trees for epiphytic diversity. In total about 80 species were recorded from veteran trees. Especially oak (Quercus robur) is exceptionally rich in coniocarpous ‘rain shadow specialists’ (Caliciaceae), among which six members of the genus Chaenotheca and the four currently known Dutch Calicium species: C. adspersum, … Read more...

Hellemans K. (2021): Reactie op ‘Update Nederlandse namen korstmossen’ [Comment on ‘Update of Dutch names of lichens’], Buxbaumiella, 122: 22–24

[in Dutch with English abstract: ] Recently an update of the official list of Dutch names for lichens was published (Kolk et al. 2021). In my opinion, the authors missed a good opportunity to improve the list more thoroughly by renaming, at long last, all lichens with misleading names. In Dutch, two words for ‘lichen’ are in use: ‘licheen’ and ‘korstmos’. Translated literally into English, the latter word would become ‘crust moss’. ‘Korstmos’ is confusing for beginners, … Read more...

van Dort K. & Horsthuis M. (2021): Ongenerfd hunebedmos (Andreaea rupestris) in Gelderland [Andreaea rupestris is reported for the first time from the Province of Gelderland (The Netherlands)], Buxbaumiella, 122: 25–29

[in Dutch with English abstract: ] A fertile population of Andreaea rupestris was discovered on a shaded boulder within the Veluwezoom National Park in the Dutch province of Gelderland. Like most other ‘iconic hunebed species’ Andreaea rupestris showed a strong decline over the years in The Netherlands. Only about six moribund populations remain on slabs of ‘hunebedden’ (a type of dolmen), in the province of Drenthe. To facilitate the spread of Andreaea rupestris, two potentially … Read more...

van Middelkoop R. & van der Kolk H.-J. (2021): Thelidium papulare (reuzenschotstippelkorst) nieuw in Nederland [Thelidium papulare new to the Netherlands], Buxbaumiella, 122: 30–31

[in Dutch with English abstract: ] Thelidium papulare is reported for the first time in the Netherlands. It was found on an old brick wall of a former sea dike near Amsterdam. Read more...

Schultz M. & Paul P.-F. (2021): Die Flechten des Eichenparks: Auch kleine städtische Parks können ökologisch wertvoll sein, Berichte des Botanischen Vereins zu Hamburg, 32: 3–14

[in German] The lichens of the oak park: even small urban parks can be ecologically valuable. Im Eichenpark in Hamburg-Harvestehude werden 55 borkenbewohnende Flechtenarten sowie 16 Arten auf Gestein nachgewiesen. Das nur 2 ha große Areal am westlichen Ufer der Alster unmittelbar an der Einmündung in die Außenalster weist eine für die Hamburger Innenstadt bemerkenswert hohe Vielfalt auf und belegt damit den Wert selbst kleinerer städtischer Parkanlagen als Refugien überwiegend licht- und … Read more...

Dengler J., Biurrun I. & Dembicz I. (2021): Standardised EDGG methodology for sampling grassland diversity: second amendment, Palaearctic Grasslands, 49: 22–26

The EDGG methodology of sampling multi-scale biodiversity in grasslands and other open habitats is widely applied and has proven to be a highly informative and effective way of recording high-quality data allowing for a multitude of different analyses. Based on our experiences with sampling, storing and analysing such data, here we propose three additions to the protocol: (1) We recommend to record also 1000-m² plots in addition to the hitherto seven standard grain sizes of 0.0001–100 m², as … Read more...

Farkas E. & Lőkös L. (2021): Distribution of Absconditella lignicola (Stictidaceae, lichenised Ascomycetes) in Hungary, Studia Botanica Hungarica, 52: 115–124

Absconditella lignicola a tiny, rather inconspicuous lichen species was found in Hungary recently. During a short period more than 30 new localities were recorded, and it turned to be a widely distributed but still overlooked species. Distribution map of Absconditella lignicola in Hungary is presented, and its habitat preference is discussed. Key words: Absconditella, distribution, floristics, Hungary, lichen-forming fungi, lignicolous. Read more...

Ahmadian N., Abedi M., Sohrabi M. & Rosbakh S. (2021): Contrasting seed germination response to moss and lichen crusts in Stipa caucasica, a key species of the Irano-Turanian steppe, Folia Geobotanica, 56: 205–213

Biological soil crusts (BSC) play a crucial role in arid ecosystem functioning, yet the effect of their properties (e.g. whether they are dominated by mosses and lichens) on the germination has rarely been investigated. Here, we analysed the effects of intact, dead and removed moss or lichen BSC on seed germination of Stipa caucasica, a key species in the Iranian Artemisia steppes. Our results revealed that both dead and intact moss BSC significantly and strongly reduced and delayed germination putatively … Read more...
