(ed.), Lietuvos makroskopinių grybų ir kerpių sąvadas taksonai ir mikonimai [Compendium of Lithuanian macroscopic fungi and lichens taxa and myconyms], p. 49–81, Gamtos tyrimų centras, Vilnius

[chapter in book; in Lithuanian with English abstract: ] The article contains a list of all lichen and allied fungus (lichenicolous and some saprotrophic) species recorded so far in Lithuania, which includes 775 species belonging to 262 genera. One species, namely Scytinium gelatinosum, is reported here for the first time in Lithuania. All species are provided with Lithuanian names. The history of lichen research and the development of Lithuanian names for lichens is briefly discussed. Keywords: … Read more...

Cannone N., Malfasi F., Favero-Longo S. E., Convey P. et Guglielmin M. (2022): Acceleration of climate warming and plant dynamics in Antarctica, Current Biology, 32: 1599-1606.e2

The strong air temperature warming between the 1950s and 2016 in the Antarctic Peninsula region1 exceeded the global average warming2,3 with evident impacts on terrestrial ecosystems and the two native Antarctic vascular plants Deschampsia antarctica Desv. and Colobanthus quitensis (Kunth) Bartl.4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 Subsequently, a short but intense cooling occurred from the Antarctic Peninsula to the South Orkney Islands (1999–2016),1,11, 12, 13 impacting terrestrial ecosystems, with reduced lichen … Read more...

Knudsen K., Urbanavichus G., Hodková E., Tsurykau A. & Kocourková J. (2022): Acarospora schorica is a Trimmatothelopsis [Acarospora schorica gehört zu Trimmatothelopsis], Herzogia, 35(2): 467-474

Acarospora schorica is the oldest name for Trimmatothelopsis sphaerosperma and has priority. The new combination Trimmatothelopsis schorica is proposed. The species is recognized as occurring in Asia, Europe, and North America. Phylogenetic analysis of sequence data verifies its placement in the genus Trimmatothelopsis Read more...

Bosanquet S.D.S. (2022): A review of non-vascular plant and fungal SSSI features in Wales - Lichens, Natural Resources Wales Evidence Report, 369: 1-158

The lichen flora of Wales represents more than 70% of the British total, with more than 1300 recorded Welsh lichen species. This report evaluates 14 assemblages of lichens and more than 200 Red Listed lichen species, and identifies which assemblages and species qualify as SSSI features using the revised 2018 Guidelines for Selection of Biological SSSIs: Lichens and associated microfungi. A total of 109 SSSI across Wales have at least one lichen feature that qualifies for selection, of which 68 (62%) … Read more...

Lichens are a composite consortium of a fungus and an alga. The symbiotic organisms are naturally equipped with distinct characteristics as compared to constituting organisms separately. Lichens, due to their peculiar anatomy and physiology, are the reservoir of more than 600 unique secondary metabolites, also known as 'lichen substances'. Since ancient times, many ethnic groups from various parts of the world have known about the applications of lichens as major provenance of food/fodder, medicine, … Read more...

Poquita-Du R.C., Otte J., Calchera A. & Schmitt I. (2024): Genome-wide comparisons reveal extensive divergence within the lichen photobiont genus, Trebouxia, Genome Biology and Evolution, 16(10): evae219 [14 p.]

The green algal genus Trebouxia is the most frequently encountered photobiont of the lichen symbiosis. The single-celled symbionts have a worldwide distribution, including all continents and climate zones. The vast, largely undescribed, diversity of Trebouxia lineages is currently grouped into four phylogenetic clades (A, C, I, and S), based on a multilocus phylogeny. Genomes are still scarce, however, and it is unclear how the phylogenetic diversity, the broad ecological tolerances, and the ability … Read more...

Wenzl M., Baumhoer C.A., Dietz A.J. & Kuenzer C. (2024): Vegetation changes in the Arctic: A review of Earth observation applications, Remote Sensing , 16(23): 4509 [38 p.]

The Arctic, characterised by severe climatic conditions and sparse vegetation, is experiencing rapid warming, with temperatures increasing by up to four times the global rate since 1979. Extensive impacts from these changes have far-reaching consequences for the global climate and energy balance. Satellite remote sensing is a valuable tool for monitoring Arctic vegetation dynamics, particularly in regions with limited ground observations. To investigate the ongoing impact of climate change on Arctic … Read more...

Follmann G. & Huneck S. (1969): Mitteilungen über Flechteninhaltsstoffe. LXIII. Zur Phytochemie und Chemotaxonomie der Graphidaceae , Journal of the Hattori Botanical Laboratory, 32: 145–150

[in German with English summary: ] 1. Ten species of the crustose lichen family Graphidaceae have been analyzed microchemically and (or) by thin layer chromatography, eight of them for the first time. 2. In this group the main specific lichen substance seems to be the depsidone norstictic acid. 3. Hence, the ascohymenial Graphidaceae (Lecanorales) are not only anatomically but also metabolically clearly separated from the externally similar ascolocular Opegraphaceae (Hysteriales).
