Ralston K. (2001): Francis Robert Muter Wilson: pioneer australian lichenologist, Bibl. Lichenol., 78: 369-388

In the nineteenth century, clergymen made a significant contribution to the study of Australian natural history mainly, it can be suggested, because they were highly educated, were usually well versed in Latin, had the opportunity to travel around their parishes and had the leisure time to pursue this study (GILBERT 1982). Coupled with this is the fact that natural history was a very popular pastime of the nineteenth century, and it was often recommended as a cure for various medical ailments. Each … Read more...

Porzel A. & Huneck S. (2001): Acaranoic acid and acarenoicacid: confirmation of structures by modern NMR methods, Bibl. Lichenol., 78: 365-368

The structure and stereochemistry of acaranoic acid and acarenoic acid have been confirmed by modern NMR methods as (-)-2S-methyl-3R-carboxypentadecyl-l—>-5S-olide and (-)- 2-methylene-3R-carboxypentadecyl-l—>S-olide, respectively Read more...

Owe-Larsson B. & Rambold G. (2001): The sorediate species of the lichen genus Miriquidica (Lecanorales, Lecanoraceae), Bibl. Lichenol., 78: 335-364

The morphological and chemical variation and the distribution of Miriquidica intrudens and M. nigroleprosa are described. Lecidea is regarded as a variety of M. nigroleprosa and the new combination M. nigroleprosa var. liljenstroemii is made. A sorediate form of M. complanata is newly described as M. complanata f. sorediata Read more...

Obermayer W. (2001): On the identity of Lethariella sinensis Wei & Jiang, with new reports of Tibetian Lethariella species, Bibl. Lichenol., 78: 321-326

The holotype material of Lethariella sinensis Wei & Jiang is a mixture of two chemically distinct taxa, one containing psoromic acid, the other containing norstictic acid. The former is chosen as lectotype and, as a result, L. mieheana Obermayer becomes a synonym of L. sinensis. Additional Lethariella specimens from Tibet have also been subjected to TLC analysis, and the results are presented Read more...

Nash H. T., Thomas M. A., Hoober J. K., Gries C. & Zheng S. (2001): Free amino acids in lichens and their symbionts, Bibl. Lichenol., 78: 313-319

Free amino acids were analyzed in four macrolichens: Evernia prunastri, Pseudevernia intensa, Flavopuncteliapraesignis and Nephroma resupinatum. Overall concentrations measured fell well within the range of values reported in the literature. Little change in pool size of these amino acids was found in response to sulphur dioxide fumigations. Significant variation among species was observed with the highest values found in the cyanolichen A resupinatum. Species to species variation partly reflected … Read more...

Lücking R. & Kalb K. (2001): New Caledonia, foliicolous lichens and island geography, Bibl. Lichenol., 78: 247-273

Based on collections gathered between 1886 and 1994, we present a survey of the foliicolous lichen flora of New Caledonia. A total of 107 species in 37 genera and 18 families are reported, increasing the number of foliicolous taxa known for this territory from 22 to 111, and that of New Caledonian lichens in general to 697. Arthonia novaecaledoniae Lucking & Kalb sp. nov., Badimia elixii Lucking, Kalb & Lumbsch sp. nov., Coenogonium labyrinthicum Lucking & Kalb sp. nov, and Fellhanera mackeei Lucking … Read more...
