Černajová I., Steinová J., Škvorová Z. & Škaloud P. (2022): The curious case of Cladonia luteoalba: no support for its distinction, Lichenologist, 54(6): 345–354

Cladonia luteoalba shows a specific pattern in chemical variability. Its chemotype coincides with that of the associated Cladonia thalli. This has led to the formation of various hypotheses, but its true nature has never been clarified. We collected C. luteoalba in Central Europe and Norway. The chemotypes were detected by TLC and the mycobionts and photobionts were identified by Sanger sequencing of ITS rDNA. Mycobiont cultures were obtained and Illumina metabarcoding of the fungal ITS1 rDNA region … Read more...

Di Pietro R., Giardini M., Iamonico D., Tondi G., Angeloni D., Carli E., Aleffi M., Azzella M.M., Di Pietro F., Proietti E., Ravera S. & Fortini P. (2022): Floristic and coenological data from the travertine substrates of the SAC “Travertini Acque Albule (Bagni di Tivoli)” (Lazio Region – Central Italy), Plant Sociology, 59(2): 51–70

During a phytosociological field-work campaign on the vegetation of the travertine outcrops, included in the Special Area of Conservation (SAC) “Travertini Acque Albule (Bagni di Tivoli)” (Central Italy), several taxa of particular interest were identified. Carex vulpina, Lolium apenninum, Onosma echioides subsp. angustifolia, Typha domingensis, T. laxmannii and Vicia pannonica subsp. pannonica are new for the Lazio administrative Region, while Ophrys illyrica and Zannichellia peltata are confirmed … Read more...

Marcinčinová M. & Tuptová V. (2022): Epiphytic lichen diversity in the urban area of Košice (E Slovakia) with some notes on its air quality, Thaiszia – Journal of Botany, 32: 91–108

Lichen diversity in the City of Košice was studied investigating lichen diversity on 160 trees distributed over 32 sites. Its relationship to pollution sources (steel plant, thermal power station) were determined by calculating the IAP (Index of Atmospheric Purity). A total of 60 lichen species was found, 30 of which are endangered. The rare species Parmelina quercina is reported for the first time. The lichen diversity in the City of Košice is decreasing as we move closer to the sources … Read more...

Giovanetti M., Máguas C. & Munzi S. (2022): Washboarding: are man-managed honeybees performing a vestigial activity fostered by cryptogams?, Journal of Apicultural Science, 66(2): 179–197

A common view is that honeybees are mostly managed by beekeepers for commercial purposes or as a hobby, especially in Europe. This misconception is probably due to the lack of systematic studies on wild colonies of honeybees in Europe in comparison to other regions of the world. Since we are used to considering this species as “domesticated”, we may be induced to disregard activities not distinctly linked with colony survival, reproduction, or productivity. Washboarding is one of them in … Read more...

Zhurbenko M.P. (2022): Atronectria thelotrematis (Sordariomycetes), a remarkable new pyrenomycete on Thelotrema lepadinum from Chile, with a key to the lichenicolous fungi growing on Thelotrema, Plant and Fungal Systematics, 67(2): 34–39

Atronectria thelotrematis, a lichenicolous pyrenomycete growing on Thelotrema lepadinum, is described as new to science from Chile. The species is characterized by black perithecioid ascomata; a brown, not changing color in K and lactic acid, N+ reddish orange exciple resembling textura angularis or textura epidermoidea; 0–4-septate periphyses; a I−, K/I− hymenium with rather rare lipid droplets; the absence of distinct interascal filaments; inoperculate, unitunicate, cylindrical, 8-spored, … Read more...

Ossowska E.A., Kosecka M., Jaskólska J. & Kukwa M. (2022): Two taxa of the genus Sticta (Peltigerales, Ascomycota), S. andina and S. scabrosa subsp. scabrosa, new to Bolivia confirmed by molecular data, Plant and Fungal Systematics, 67(2): 45–54

The first records of Sticta andina and S. scabrosa subsp. scabrosa from Bolivia are presented. All records are confirmed by molecular data. Sticta andina has flattened, marginal isidia and phyllidia with abundant, submarginal apothecia, while tomentum is dark brown to black, whereas, S. scabrosa subsp. scabrosa has marginal and laminal phyllidia and pale to dark, grey tomentum. Two Bolivian specimens of the latter possess sparse, marginal to laminal apothecia, which previously have not been … Read more...

Vondrák J., Svoboda S., Malíček J., Palice Z., Kocourková J. & Hofmeister J. (2022): Popelka princeznou – výjimečná druhová bohatost lišejníků v dlouho osídlené střední Evropě, Živa, 2022(6): 293–297

Po ukončení průzkumu Týřova, kde bylo pořízeno 6,5 tisíce nálezových dat, měla bezmála třetina druhů (225) pouze jeden nález a zhruba polovina druhů (384) jeden až tři nálezy. U dalších 233 druhů jsme zaregistrovali 4–10 a u pouhých 170 více než 10 nálezů. Z toho plyne, že většina lišejníků se v území nachází vzácně, což potvrzuje obecně známou skutečnost, že vzácnost je v přírodě přirozenou a velmi rozšířenou vlastností (viz např. Vesmír 2009, … Read more...

Man M., Malíček J., Kalčík V., Novotný P., Chobot K. & Wild J. (2022): DaLiBor: Database of Lichens and Bryophytes of the Czech Republic, Preslia, 94: 579–605

Digital data on the distribution of species are crucial for vegetation studies, monitoring and nature protection. Despite the existence of databases, the majority of bryophyte and lichen occurrences in the Czech Republic are not widely available in a standard and machinereadable form. Therefore, we created a Database of Lichens and Bryophytes (DaLiBor; https://dalibor.ibot.cas.cz) under Creative Commons license (CC-BY-SA). DaLiBor provides an infrastructure for recording standardizing, validating … Read more...

Malíček J. (2022): Lišejníky přírodní rezervace Ptačí stěna v Blanském lese [Lichens of Ptačí stěna Nature Reserve in the Blanský les Mts], Bryonora, 70: 1-14

The Blanský les Mts are a small and poorly studied mountain range in South Bohemia (Czech Republic). This contribution describes the lichen diversity in one of the protected forest reserves in the area, Ptačí stěna Nature Reserve (20.53 ha, alt. 735–875 m). It is mainly covered by natural beech and scree forests of up to 200 years old. Granulite rocks and scree are abundant in the upper part of the area, but mostly shaded by the forest. In total, 156 lichen species and three non-lichenised … Read more...
