Muchnik E.E. & Blagoveschenskaya E.Yu. (2022): Distribution of epiphytic lichens along a tree’s trunk, Russian Journal of Ecology, 53(6): 448–455

[Original Russian Text published in Ekologiya, 2022, No. 6, pp. 430–437] A study of the trunks of spruce and birch trees after a windblow on the territory of the Zvenigorod Biological Station of Moscow State University and the Sima Quarry Nature Reserve (Moscow oblast) was carried out. The diversity of epiphytic lichens depending on height of the trunk was studied. It is shown that the position on the tree trunk significantly affects the number of identified lichen species, which increases … Read more...

Concostrina-Zubiri L., Berdugo M., Valencia E., Mendoza B.J. & Maestre F.T. (2022): Decomposition of dryland biocrust‑forming lichens and mosses contributes to soil nutrient cycling, Plant and Soil, 481: 23–34

Background and aims: Biocrusts are major contributors to dryland nutrient cycling by regulating C, N and P inputs and fuxes. However, our understanding about how the decomposition of biocrust constituents contributes to soil nutrient cycling in drylands is virtually unknown. Methods: We conducted a microcosm experiment to: i) evaluate the litter decomposition dynamics of two common biocrust-forming species with contrasting tissue chemistry and growth form (the lichen Cladonia foliacea and … Read more...

Trubina M.R., Mikhailova I.N. & Dyachenko A.P. (2022): Dynamics of communities of cryptogamic organisms on dead wood after reduction of the emissions from a copper smelter, Russian Journal of Ecology, 53(6): 437–447

[Original Russian text published in Ekologiya, 2022, No. 6, pp. 421–429] The dynamics of the species composition of mosses and lichens on the dead wood of fir and spruce in the southern taiga forests of the Middle Urals after the almost complete cessation of emissions from the Middle Urals copper smelter (Revda, Sverdlovsk region) was studied. Compared to the period of high emissions (1993–1994), the number of moss species in the immediate vicinity of the plant (1–2 km) increased from … Read more...

Lecanora substerilis, Rufoplaca subpallida, Sarcogyne praetermissa and Verrucaria fuscoatroides are reported as new for Russia. Didymocyrtis epiphyscia s. lat., Epithamnolia longicladoniae, Lecanora barkmaniana and Sclerococcum epicladonia are new for the European part of Russia, and Arthonia phaeophysciae, Bacidina mendax, Cladonia novochlorophaea, Gyalecta carneola, Lichenoconium aeruginosum and Verrucaria … Read more...

Seaward M.R.D. & Amrani S. (2022): Checklist of lichens and lichenicolous fungi of Morocco, Herzogia, 35(2): 564–612

The lichen flora of Morocco has been the subject of two relatively recent checklists; that of Egea published in 1996 included 1,100 taxa, which was increased to 1,211 in 2013 by Ajaj and his collaborators. As a result of recent field-work, a detailed survey of herbarium catalogues, and the significant number of changes in nomenclature that have occurred since these two publications, an updated checklist consisting of 1287 taxa (1237 lichens and 50 lichenicolous and allied fungi) was necessary.

Kaltenböck M., Hafellner J., Malíček J. & Mayrhofer H. (2022): A contribution to the diversity of lichens and lichenicolous fungi in North Macedonian mountainous areas, Herzogia, 35(2): 541–563

A field trip was carried out in summer 2017 with emphasis on mountain peak sites in six mountain ranges of North Macedonia: Kajmakčalan, Korab, Kožuf, Mokra Planina, Pelister, and Šar Planina. The fieldwork resulted in an output of c. 1200 samples. 419 taxa were identified, including 123 lichens, 17 lichenicolous fungi, and one non-lichenized fungus that are all new for the country. Sixteen lichens are new for the Balkan Peninsula: Allocetraria madreporiformis, Aspicilia supertegens, Caloplaca … Read more...

Schiefelbein U., Knudsen K. & Malíček J. (2022): Revision von Belegen der Flechtengattungen Acarospora, Lecanora und Ramalina aus dem einstigen Privatherbarium von Ludwig Meinunger, Herzogia, 35(2): 462–466

Specimens of the genus Acarospora as well as of Lecanora hybocarpa, L. sinuosa and Ramalina baltica from the former private herbarium of Ludwig Meinunger were revised. The here published specimens of Acarospora intermedia are the first records for the German landscape units Mecklenburgisches Rückland (Mecklenburg-Vorpommern), Main- Tauber-Gebiet (Bavaria) und Vogtland (Thuringia). The occurrences of Acarospora gallica, A. rugulosa and Lecanora sinuosa in Thuringia were confirmed. Lecanora hybocarpa … Read more...

Himelbrant D., Stepanchikova I., Andreev M., Korolev K., Konoreva L., Chesnokov S. & Petrenko D. (2022): New and noteworthy lichenized and lichen associated fungi from the Kaliningrad region (former Ostpreußen), Herzogia, 35(2): 475–493

New and noteworthy records from lichenological fieldwork conducted in 2020 in the southeastern part of the Kaliningrad region (former Ostpreußen) are presented, mainly from Vishtynetsky Nature Park. Altogether 33 species are new to the Kaliningrad region, including Zwackhia sorediifera new to Russia. Lecidella subviridis is new to European Russia outside of the Caucasus. Twelve species, which are rare or protected in the region, are also treated. Most lichen species, also rare and threatened … Read more...

Fayyaz I., Afshan N., Iftikhar F., Rehman Niazi A. & Khalid A.N. (2022): A new species of the lichen genus Buellia (lichenized Ascomycota, Caliciaceae) from Pakistan, Herzogia, 35(2): 613–620

Buellia densipruinosa from the Himalayan moist temperate forest in Pakistan is described as new to science. nrITS sequences confirm its position within the genus Buellia and, together with its morphology and chemistry, suggest its distinction from other species of this genus. The taxon is characterized by a gray to grayish black thallus, plane to slightly concave apothecia, 1.5–3 mm wide with a pruinose disc, a hymenium 90–150 μm high, 1-septate ascospores, 7.3‒12 × 3‒4.5 μm, and by … Read more...

Burgaz A.R., Márquez R. & Pino-Bodas R. (2022): The Cladoniaceae (Lecanorales, Ascomycota) from Bulgaria, Herzogia, 35(2): 510–540

A study of the Cladoniaceae has been carried out in Bulgaria, based on new collections from 61 different localities. Thirty five species were found (34 Cladonia and 1 Pycnothelia species), seven of which are new records to Bulgaria, Cladonia asahinae, C. conista, C. cyathomorpha, C. diversa, C. magyarica, C. novochlorophaea and C. peziziformis. As a result of this study the total number of Bulgarian Cladoniaceae species rises to 55, belonging to two genera, Cladonia and Pycnothelia. Our study … Read more...
