Fernandez-Murillo M.P., Cifuentes E., Beggs A., Manzano M., Gutiérrez-Cortez I., Vargas C., del Río C. & Alfaro F.D. (2026): Assessing the crucial role of marine fog in early soil development and biocrust dynamics in the Atacama Desert, Soil Systems, 10(1):12 [26 p.]

Marine fog is a key non-rainfall water source that sustains microbial activity and transports dissolved nutrients inland, influencing early soil development in hyperarid ecosystems. However, the mechanisms through which sustained fog inputs drive soil surface modification and biocrust formation remain poorly understood. This study evaluated the effects of long-term fog augmentation on soil surface development, biocrust dynamics, and associated microbial communities in the Atacama Desert. We implemented … Read more...

(2026): Mapping the landscape of mycological organizations in Europe: where citizen science meets professional mycology, Biodiversity and Conservation, 35: 37 [26 p.]

Fungi have been used by humans since prehistoric times. Informal structures or groups for knowledge exchange regarding mushrooms and lichens probably existed for ages. Only recently, mycological activities have been structured in formal organizations. And where until a few centuries ago there were only learned societies and naturalists’ clubs, nowadays also mycological societies and citizen scientists have joined the landscape. However, the history of mycological organizations and activities in … Read more...

Ezhkin A.K. & Yakovchenko L.S. (2025): A revision of the lichen genus Protopannaria (Pannariaceae, Peltigerales, lichenized Ascomycota) in the Russian Far East with a new record to Russia, Turczaninowia, 28(3): 113–118

During the revision of the lichen genus Protopannaria in the Russian Far East an epiphyte lichen species new to Russia is reported. Protopannaria corticola previously known only from Sichuan Province of China (Himalayas) was found in montane coniferous and riparian deciduous forests on bark of conifer and deciduous trees in the northern and middle Sakhalin and the north-eastern Sikhote-Alin Mountain Range in the Khabarovsk Territory. The record of the species in the Russian Far East shows a rather … Read more...

Zhurbenko M.P., Chesnokov S.V., Skirina I.F. & Skirin F.V. (2025): Lichenicolous fungi growing on Myelochroa in the Far East of Russia, Turczaninowia, 28(3): 132–139

An augmented species concept is proposed for Arthonia pepei s. l. based on its finding on the new host genus Myelochroa. A brief description of Burgoa cf. angulosa, first found on Myelochroa and characterized by erumpent and mainly orange grey instead of superficial and whitish bulbils, is given. Plectocarpon diedertzianum, previously known only from India, is recorded from Russia. Lichenostigma alpinum s. l. is first recorded on Myelochroa. To date, 11 species of lichenicolous fungi are known to … Read more...

Chesnokov S.V. & Konoreva L.A. (2025): Addition to the lichen flora of Kunashir Island (Sakhalin Region, Kuril Islands), Turczaninowia, 28(4): 36–51

This study documents 36 new lichen species for Kunashir Island, thereby bringing the total number of known lichens and lichenicolous fungi on the island to 430. The species Agonimia pacifica and Parmelia marmorophylla are reported for Russia for the first time. Cliostomum leprosum, Pseudosagedia borreri, Thelocarpon superellum, and Trapelia corticola are new to the Russian Far East. Julella sericea, Micarea botryoides, and Muellerella lichenicola are new to the Sakhalin Region. Six species are reported … Read more...

Hofbauer W.K. (2025): Early colonisation of modern building surfaces, Plant Ecology and Diversity, 18: 237–247

Background: A large increase in surface growth on building façades has stimulated ongoing research on identifying colonising organisms and their impact on colonised surfaces. Aims: This paper focuses on the characterisation of initial ecological succession on building surfaces. Methods: Diverse investigations were used in an interdisciplinary approach to study early colonisation on modern building surfaces. Results: More than 200 different taxa have been identified as part of the early succession … Read more...

Zhu J.-N., Liu M.-L., He Q.-H. & Ding H.-Y. (2025): Endophytic microorganisms in lichen: rising stars in the biomedicine field deserving broader recognition, Journal of Asian Natural Products Research, 27(10): 1389–1407

Lichens are renowned for their ability to thrive in extreme environments and for producing unique metabolites with considerable bioactive potential. However, their medicinal value remains largely underexplored, primarily due to slow growth rates and habitat specificity. Notably, endolichenic microorganisms, particularly fungi, are the predominant producers of these bioactive compounds, which exhibit antimicrobial, antiviral, and anticancer properties. Investigating these microorganisms and their … Read more...

Millot M., Dieu A. & Tomasi S. (2016): Dibenzofurans and derivatives from lichens and ascomycetes, Natural Product Reports, 33: 801–811

When looking for dibenzofuran in the biochemical databases, most papers and reviews deal with pollutants and polychlorinated dibenzofurans like dioxins. But dibenzofurans are also biosynthetized by a wide diversity of organisms in nature. Even if dibenzofurans from natural sources represent a small class of secondary metabolites, compared to flavonoids, xanthones or terpenoids, they are often endowed with interesting biological properties which have been recently described. This review provides an … Read more...
