Abstract Phylogenetic analyses using mtSSU and nuITS sequences of Buellia violaceofusca (previously placed in Lecanoromycetes ), a sterile, sorediate lichen having trebouxioid photobiont, surprisingly prove that the species is conspecific with Lecanographa amylacea ( Arthoniomycetes fertile, esorediate trentepohlioid photobiont. These results suggest L . B are photomorphs same mycobiont species, which, depending on photobiont type, changes morphology reproduction strategy. This first example...
Bryophytes and lichens are the most species-rich groups of epiphytes in temperate forests. They colonise different tree species that create a wide variety microhabitats, conditions these microhabitats modulated by factors. We assessed drivers maintain epiphyte richness diversity bryophytes along composition gradients. hypothesised influences bryophytes. The study was conducted on 31 plots Kudowski Potok River (SW Poland). Each plot 500 m2 circle (r = 12.62 m), banks stream. These sites among...
Abstract Micarea soralifera sp. nov., a new sorediate species belonging to the M. prasina group, is characterized by soralia developing directly from endoxylic thallus or small external areoles, as well presence of micareic acid. Phylogenetic analyses mtSSU rDNA sequences have shown that its closest relative subviridescens . ITS sequence, marker proposed universal barcoding region fungi, was generated holotype.
Abstract The landscape-scale extinction of a tree species may have negative impact on diversity associated epiphytic species. We used ordination and hierarchical clustering methods to assess landscape the community level effects reduction in abundance European ash Fraxinus excelsior , caused by dieback, lichen biota Białowieża Forest (Poland)—the best preserved forest complex Central Europe. At decline ash-associated lichens was weak, due high species, which serve as potential alternative...
Six new Micarea species are described from Europe. Phylogenetic analyses, based on three loci, i.e. mtSSU rDNA, Mcm7 and ITS rDNA ancestral state reconstructions, were used to evaluate infra-group divisions the role of secondary metabolites selected morphological characters taxonomy in M.prasina group. Two main lineages found within The Micareamicrococca clade consists twelve species, including long-known M.micrococca newly M.microsorediata , M.nigra M.pauli . Within this clade, most produce...
Biatora pontica , Buellia violaceofusca Catillaria croatica Parmelia ernstiae Placopsis lambii Protoparmelia oleagina and Scoliciosporum curvatum are recorded as new to Poland. Most reported species represent a group of crustose, often sterile lichens where secondary chemistry plays an important role in the taxonomy. Characteristics each species, notes on similar taxa, distribution, habitat provided.
Abstract Two new species of Arthoniaceae are described from old-growth European forests: Arthonia thoriana Horner Combe in Great Britain and Inoderma sorediatum the Białowieża Forest Poland. Phylogenetic analyses using mtSSU sequences were used to determine generic affiliation two species. is characterized by a non-lichenized white thallus, pallid brown, pruinose ascomata 0·12–0·30 mm diam., richly anastomosing paraphysoids (1–2–)3-septate ascospores 9–12×3·0–3·5 µm. differs all other genus...
Lecanora stainislai is characterized by a very thin sorediate thallus, forming more or less continuous layer of soredia and the production usnic acid zeorin. It usually grows on smooth bark trees in forests known from Czech Republic, Norway, Poland, Russia, Ukraine western North America (Canada, USA). chemically similar to L. compallens, which however has an episubstratal thallus non-sorediate parts often delimited soralia. They have also different phylogenetic positions within symmicta...
Anthropogenic disturbances can have strong impacts on lichen communities, as well individual species of lichenized fungi. Traditionally, monitoring studies are based the presence and abundance fungal morphospecies. However, photobionts, photobiont mycobiont interactions also contribute to structure, composition, resilience communities. Here we assess genetic diversity interaction patterns algal partners in communities along an anthropogenic disturbance gradient Białowieża Forest (Poland). We...
A sterile sorediate member of the genus Bacidia s.str., B.albogranulosa, is described here as a new species. It characterised by its very thin, pale grey thallus, white, farinose to granular soredia, production atranorin and absence ascomata pycnidia. grows on slightly acidic subneutral bark broad-leaved trees in old-growth forests Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine Russia (European part Caucasus). The species well morphology, secondary chemistry molecular (nrITS, mtSSU) traits. closely related...

Research highlights: shifts in the composition and functional diversity of lichen biota reflect changes environment caused by climate warming eutrophication. Background objectives: studies on refinement traits under pressure changing environmental factors are currently great scientific interest. The obtained results interpreted relation to specific habitat properties their modifications due potential effects change atmospheric pollution. aim work was investigate species diversity, as well...
Five lichen species: <em>Bacidia pycnidiata, Fellhanera gyrophorica, Leucocarpia biatorella, Parmotrema perlatum</em> and <em>Punctelia ulophylla,</em> are presented. Punctelia ulophylla</em> new to Central Poland. pycnidiata</em> is reported from Poland for the third time.
Loxospora cristinae sp. nov. is a sterile corticolous lichen characterized by sorediate, thin, smooth, folded, cracked-areolate and non-verruculose to partly verruculose thalli, soralia soon becoming confluent the production of 2’-O-methylperlatolic acid. The new species similar recently described L. assateaguensis confusa, which are also contain can be readily distinguished from thallus, distinctly almost edge pustular, circular developing apically on thalline verrucae, confusa presence...
SO2, NOx, and metals (including Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn, Mn, Mg, Fe) present in airborne particulate matter are a major threat to preserving good air quality. The complicated pathways transformation processes that can change their physical/chemical state the atmosphere renders identifying origin extremely difficult. With objective of alleviating this difficulty, we identified characterized potential local regional sources atmospheric pollutants using bioindicators (Hypogymnia physodes) from...
This paper presents the distribution of 405 taxa lichens and 26 species lichenicolous fungi in Świętokrzyski National Park.
Spring areas are specific habitats characterized by higher humidity, which favors the presence of a range living organisms. We have studied three types mountain forest springs (<i>Piceo-Alnetum, Carici remotae-Fraxinetum, and Equiseto sylvatici-Piceetum abietis</i> communities) Stołowe Mountains National Park (Poland), focusing on species diversity lichens bryophytes. In terms cryptogam species, exhibit large pool shared species. This similarity is most notable between...
