Ezhkin A.K., Yakovchenko L.S., Davydov E.A. & Kaganov V.V. (2026): A revision of the lichen genus Thelotrema Ach. (Thelotremataceae) in the Sakhalin Region, Far East of Russia, Turczaninowia, 29(1): 167–174

As a result of a revision of the lichen genus Thelotrema in the Sakhalin Region (Russian Far East), two species are reported as new to the region. Thelotrema diplotrema is recorded for the first time in Russia, and T. suecicum is reported for the first time in Asia. T. diplotrema previously known only from evergreen forests in tropical and subtropical regions of Africa, Australia, and Asia, was found in an old-growth forest with bamboo understory on the bark of deciduous trees on Kunashir Island. … Read more...

Tabakina V.V., Gagarina L.V., Chesnokov S.V. & Prokopiev I.A. (2026): A first report of Acarospora rosulata (Acarosporaceae) in Russia from Yakutia, Turczaninowia, 29(1): 116–123

During the study of the lichen biota of Yakutia, Acarospora rosulata (Th. Fr.) H. Magn. was identified on the basis of morphological, anatomical, secondary metabolites and molecular data for the first time in Russia. Phylogenetic analysis based on ITS sequences revealed that the studied specimens form a well-supported clade (BS value = 86%) with specimens from Mongolia, USA, and Norway. The studied specimens are characterized by a brown, shiny, squamulose areolate thallus, sometimes with some outer … Read more...

Урбанавичюс Г.П. & Урбанавичене И.Н. [Urbanavichus G.P. & Urbanavichene I.N.] (2026): Sphinctrina paramerae (Mycocaliciales, Sphinctrinacea) – новый для России вид и другие виды рода Sphinctrina на Кавказе [Sphinctrina paramerae (Mycocaliciales, Sphinctrinacea) – a new species for Russia and other records of Sphinctrina from the Caucasus], Turczaninowia, 29(1): 14–19

[in Russian with English abstract: ] This article provides information on the first records of lichenicolous fungus Sphinctrina paramerae in Russia. This species parasitizes Pertusaria paramerae thallus. The studied specimens were collected in the Sub-Mediterranean formations in the Utrish Reserve, Abrau Peninsula, Krasnodar Territory (Russia). Morphological description, photographs and information on the ecology and distribution of this species are provided. Sphinctrina leucopoda and S. turbinata … Read more...

Kaganov V.V., Yakovchenko L.S. & Ezhkin A.K. (2026): The genus Anthracothecium (Pyrenulaceae) in Russia, Turczaninowia, 29(1): 80–84

The genus Anthracothecium is re-reported for the territory of Russia. The article discusses that A. speciosum f. speciosum was mistakenly included in the lists of lichens of Russia, of the south of the Far East and of Shikotan Isl., and also that A. speciosum f. iturupiense morphologically and anatomically corresponds more closely to the genus Pyrenula. Thus, the tropical genus Anthracothecium is represented in Russia by one species, Anthracothecium australiense reported here to the Kunashir Island. … Read more...

Ferrari F.R., Villa P.M., Putzke J., Robinson S.A., Francelino M.R. & Schaefer C.E.G.R. (2026): Habitat-mediated filtering, rather than soil properties, shapes plant community diversity on Nelson Island, Maritime Antarctica, Journal of Vegetation Science, 37(3): e70145 [15 p.]

Aims: Environmental filtering is a key framework in vegetation science; yet, disentangling the relative roles of habitat and soil-mediated filters remains challenging in Antarctic cryptogamic communities. At the regional scale in Antarctica, climate is the primary driver of plant community diversity and structure. However, at a local scale, topography and soil properties are also crucial. This study aimed to assess how habitat-mediated (including substrate type and nesting-related disturbance), … Read more...

Rawat S., Kumar N., Quyoom B., ul Haq M. & Peer L.A. (2026): Multivariate chemoprospecting of five ethnobotanically important Himalayan lichens identifies Parmotrema austrosinense as a promising source of phenolic antioxidants, Chemistry and Biodiversity, 23(5): e71264 [14 p.]

Lichens are an underexplored reservoir of nutritionally and pharmacologically relevant metabolites. This study provides one of the first comprehensive multivariate profiles of five ethnobotanically important lichen species (Lobaria retigera, Dirinaria consimilis, Parmotrema austrosinense, Ramalina conduplicans, and Usnea orientalis) from Uttarakhand, India, using an integrated screening approach to evaluate and rank their bioactive potential. A combined analysis of nutritional components (protein, … Read more...

Chowaniec K., Szafrańska K. & Skubała K. (2026): Biocrust heterogeneity drives water balance in the topsoil of temperate sandy post-mining ecosystem, Journal of Soil Sediments, 26: 181 [18 p.]

Purpose: Sandy habitats in temperate regions include a range of anthropogenic and semi-natural ecosystems, such as post-mining areas. Such environments face severe ecological constraints due to coarse soil texture, low nutrient content, and poor water retention. Among natural recovery processes, biological soil crusts (biocrusts) play a key role in shaping soil hydrology and surface stability. Keywords: Biological soil crust · Temperate climate · Water balance · Ecosystem resilience · Post-mining … Read more...

Kurakov A.V., Bibikov N.M., Bilanenko E.N., Kokaeva L.Yu., Abakumov E.V., Zherebiatyeva N.V. & Soromotin A.V. (2026): Mycobiota of Podzol Turbic under Reindeer Pastures in Tundra of the Yamal Peninsula, Eurasian Soil Science, 59: 102 [15 p.]

The diversity and structure of fungal communities in the Entic Podzol (Turbic) under variously disturbed reindeer pastures on the Yamal Peninsula were examined by the cultural method and DNA metabarcoding. We isolated 29 species from 16 genera of fungi assigned to the phyla Ascomycota and Mucoromycota by plating method and 434 OTUs of seven phyla (Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, Glomeromycota, Mortierellomycota, Mucoromycota, Olpidiomycota, and Rozellomycota) by DNA metabarcoding (251 OTUs were identified … Read more...

Pérez-Rodrigo M., Moya P., Arenzana C., Garrido-Benavent I., Barreno E., Mark K., Peksa O., Westberg M., Carrasco P. & Marco F. (2026): Poikilohydria, polyols, and homeoviscosity: lichen metabolomic remodeling across environmental gradients , Frontiers in Plant Science, 17: 1792494 [14 p.]

Introduction: Lichens are poikilohydric organisms whose biochemistry is strongly shaped by environmental conditions, yet their metabolome-wide adaptations across habitats remain unexplored. Methods: Here, we established a continent-scale reference for the in-situ metabolome of the model lichen Ramalina farinacea, from thalli collected across six European regions during winter and summer, using untargeted GC-MS. Results: In total, 187 small molecules were annotated, including a compact core of … Read more...
