Heibel E., Lumbsch H.T. & Schmitt I. (1999): Genetic variation of Usnea filipendula (Parmeliaceae) populations in western Germany investigated by RAPDs suggests reinvasion from various sources, American Journal of Botany, 86(5): 753-757

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were characterized for 25 specimens of Usnea filipendula to evaluate the genetic diversity of populations reinvading formerly uninhabited regions in Northrhine-Westphalia due to decreasing sulfur dioxide levels. With six 10-mer randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers, a 66 character by 25 specimens matrix was generated. Phenetic analysis (UPGMA) showed no obvious groupings. The reinvading populations are distributed over the phenogram and … Read more...

Aptroot A. & Seaward M.R.D. (1999): Annotated checklist of Hongkong lichens, Tropical Bryology, 17: 57-101

An annotated checklist of the lichens of Hong Kong, based on all available literature reports and specimens, including those recently collected by the authors, is presented. In total, 261 species are reported, of which 176 are new records for Hong Kong, 132 of which are new for China, 43 are new for East Asia, and 27 are new for Asia. The lichen vegetation is mainly tropical, as is shown by the distribution patterns of the identified species: 53 species are cosmopolitan, 40 northern temperate, … Read more...

Yoshimura I., Kurokawa S., Kinoshita Y., Yamamoto Y. & Miyaw (1994): Lichen substances in cultured lichens, Journ. Hattori Bot. Lab., 76: 249-261

Cultured lichens were used for chemical analysis. A few lichen substances were identified in the number of samples indicated in the parenthesis as follows: parietin (4), usnic acid with isousnic acid in some samples (9), and barbatic acid, squamatic acid, baeomycesic acid (1). The majority (61) of the samples contained unidentified substances and some samples (20) showed no significant peaks in HPLC. Parietin and its related substances are more easily synthesized in Xanthoria mycobionts similar to … Read more...

Jacobsen P. & Coppins B.J. (1989): On the identity of some "endemic" North German lichens, Nova Hedwigia, 49(3-4): 255-273

The type material of some poorly known lichen taxa described from northern Germany has been examined and revised. Bacidia saxenii and Lecidea polycarpella prove to be distinct species. Verrucaria latericola is an earlier name for the parasitic species so far known as Verrucaria granulosaria. The following species names are stated to be synonyms (accepted names on the right): Arthopyrenia lubecensis = A. inconspicua Bacidia abscondita = B. naegelii Bacidia egenula var. crassiuscula = B. subfuscula Bacidia … Read more...

Yoshimura I., Singh K. P. & Elix J. A. (1997): The genus Anzia (lichenized ascomycetes) in India, Journ. Hattori Bot. Lab., 82: 343-352

Three species of Anzia (Lecanorales, lichenized fungi), are reported from India. A. kohimana sp. nov. is described as a new species and A. physoidea Smith is typified. By comparison with the rich diversity of species of Anzia in south-eastern Asia, India is rather poorly represented and the species are rare in occurrence Read more...
