Quilhot W., Rubio C., Cuellar M. (2007): Comparative studies between the lichen flora from Chile and Antarctica, Bibl. Lichenol., 95: 479-488

The affinities between lichenic mycobiota of Chile and Antarctica (53oW and 90oW) are described. 36 % of lichen species found in Antarctica have been registered in Chile between lat. 18oS and 55oS, including a number of taxa considered endemic to Antarctica. The highest number of species was registered in montane and steppe habitats, especially in Aisén and Magallanes Regions, Navarino Island included. Caloplaca athallina, Peltigera didactyla, Physconia muscigena, Physcia caesia, Pleopsidium chlorophanum, … Read more...

Metus pileatus is reported for the first time from Argentina. Notes on its morphology, chemistry, ecology and distribution are given and the somewhat doubtful distinction from its closest ally, M. conglomeratus, is discussed Read more...

Mangold A., Elix J. A., Lumbsch H. T. (2007): The norstictic acid containing Thelotrema species in Australia, Bibl. Lichenol., 95: 459-470

Four species of the genus Thelotrema containing the norstictic acid chemosydrome are accepted in Australia: T. bicavatum Nyl., T. porinaceum Müll. Arg. and the new species T. gallowayanum and T. eungellaense. T. bicavatum, formerly regarded as a synonym of T. subtile Tuck. is shown to be a independent species. The species are described, their distribution is mapped and a key for the identification is provided Read more...

Lücking R., Aptroot A., Chaves J.L., Sipman H.J.M. & Umaña L. (2007): A first assessment of the TICOLICHEN biodiversity inventory in Costa Rica: the genus Coccocarpia (Peltigerales: Coccocarpiaceae), Bibl. Lichenol., 95: 429-457

The genus Coccocarpia is treated as part of the ongoing TICOLICHEN biodiversity inventory in Costa Rica, including a thorough revision of all the material reported by Dodge and held at the Farlow Herbarium (FH). Eighteen species are distinguished, among which four taxa are described as new: Coccocarpia gallaicoi Lücking, Chaves & Umaña (with the non-isidiate counterpart C. aff. gallaicoi), C. microphyllina Lücking & Aptroot (phyllidiate relative of C. epiphylla), C. neglecta Aptroot & Lücking … Read more...

Lindström M. (2007): New species in the lichen genus Leptogium (Collemataceae) from tropical South America, Bibl. Lichenol., 95: 405-428

Five new species of Leptogium (Collemataceae) from tropical South America are described: L. davidii, L. epiphyllum, L. transversum (types from Ecuador), L. marginatum (type from Guyana), and L. sulcatum (type from Jamaica). Details on their morphology and anatomy are presented. Their distribution, habitat and ecology are discussed. A comparison of the most important characters is presented. Four of the species described were found in areas proposed as Pleistocene rainforest refugia. Three of the … Read more...

Lewis Smith R. I. (2007): Half a continent in a square kilometre: the exceptional lichen diversity of a small Antarctic island, Bibl. Lichenol., 95: 387-403

The lichen flora of the Antarctic biome is reasonably well known, following recent revisions, and comprises about 400 taxa although this number is expected to rise as further detailed collecting and taxonomic assessments are made. The landmass of the Antarctic continent and its associated islands, south of 60oS, are approximately 2.5 times that of Europe, although barely 1% is ice-free and therefore available for colonisation by terrestrial biota. Lichens are the most widespread and diverse group … Read more...

Kondratyuk S., Kärnefelt I., Elix J. A., Thell A. (2007): New species of the genus Caloplaca in Australia, Bibl. Lichenol., 95: 341-386

Nineteen species of the genus Caloplaca from Australia are described and illustrated: eight species (namely: C. bermaguiana, C. conranii, C. filsonii, C. gallowayi, C. kiamae, C. eos, C. tomareeana and C. whinrayi) mainly occur in coastal localities; further eight species (C. aliciae, C. astonii, C. australiensis, C. haematommona, C. marchantii, C. montisfracti, C. rheinigera, and C. streimannii) mainly occur in inland localities; and three species (C. cranfieldii, C. kantvilasii and C. rexfilsonii) … Read more...

Kashiwadani H., Nash T. H. III., Moon K. H. (2007): Two new species of the genus Ramalina (Ascomycotina: Ramalinaceae) from South America, Bibl. Lichenol., 95: 335-340

Ramalina gallowayi sp. nov. and R. osorioi sp. nov. are described in the lichen family Ramalinaceae. R. gallowayi is characterized by its saxicolous habitat, its dichotomously branched cylindrical lobes growing from a common holdfast, its separated chondroid tissue and by the production of protocetraric acid. Ramalina osorioi is characterized by its saxicolous habitat, its shortly linear pseudocyphellae, its smooth chondroid tissue, its short fusiform ascospores and by the production of psoromic … Read more...

Kantvilas G., Elix J. A. (2007): Additions to the lichen family Agyriaceae Corda from Tasmania, Bibl. Lichenol., 95: 317-333

The following new species are described, discussed and illustrated: Rimularia campestris Kantvilas & Elix, Trapelia crystallifera Kantvilas & Elix and T. lilacea Kantvilas & Elix, all endemic to Tasmania, and R. ramboldiana Kantvilas & Elix, known from Tasmania and New South Wales.

Kalb K. (2007): New or otherwise interesting lichens III, Bibl. Lichenol., 95: 297-316

The new liehen genus Catillochroma is established for species formerly placed in Catillaria (or Catinaria), but having a two-layered exciple with a prosoplcctenchymatic outer part and an inner part which is composed of a textura intricata. Five species of Coenogonium with a crustose thallus are described from Australia, C. barbatellum, C. coralloideum, C. davidii, C. minutissimum and C. platysporum. New to science is also Cryptolechia caudata from Africa and Australia, and a world-wide working key … Read more...
