Two new species, Sarcogyne crispula and S. pakistanensis are described and illustrated from Pakistan. Sarcogyne crispula is similar to S. praetermissa. Both have lecideine apothecia with smooth melanized margins which curl inward above the apothecial disc and grow on calcareous rock, but they differ especially in S. crispula having larger apothecia (2-3 mm wide vs. usually less than 1 mm) with thinner margins (50-70 vs. 70-120 μm) as well as differing in nrITS and mtSSU regions. Sarcogyne pakistanensis is similar to S. similis. Both grow on siliceous rocks and produce psoromic acid. Sarcogyne paki-stanensis differs from S. similis especially in having a lower hymenium (55-85 vs. 100-125 µm), a thinner margin [ca. 100 vs. (100-)150-200 μm], a hypothecium with dark black area, as well as differing in their nrITS regions. This paper contains a key to the Sarcogyne of Europe and Asia.
... The name Sarcogyne privigna was misapplied to this species in the literature (Magnusson 1935, Knudsen et al. 2013). (Magnusson 1935, Westberg et al. 2015b. It is easily identified by its occurrence on siliceous substrates, the usually striated black margin of its lecideine apothecia which are usually less than 1 mm wide, a hymenium 65 -90 µm high, narrow ellipsoid ascospores (3.5 -5.5 × 1.0 -1.5 µm), and especially its black hypothecium. ...
Fourteen species of Acarosporaceae are reported for Belarus in the genera Acarospora, Caeruleum, Myriospora, and
Sarcogyne. The species Acarospora admissa and Acarospora intermedia are revised. Acarospora discreta and A. durietzii
are treated as synonyms of A. admissa. Lectotypes are designated for A. admissa and Parmelia squamulosa var.
discreta. Acarospora admissa is reported as new from Belarus, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, and Poland. Acarospora intermedia is reported as new from Belarus, Czech Republic, Italy, and the Russian Federation. Acarospora sibirica is reported as new to Europe and not recognized as a synonym of A. impressula. Sarcogyne hypophaeoides is reported
new for North America (Ontario, Canada) and for Belarus, France, and Italy.

The new lichen species Sarcogyne praetermissa is described from the Czech Republic. It is also reported from Finland, Hungary, Montenegro and Sweden. Sarcogyne privigna var. calcicola is lectotypifyed and synonymized with S. praetermissa. A key to the European species of Sarcogyne is provided.
... Obří důl valley is rich geologically: it includes crystalline limestones, on which Collema undulatum was found and described (Flotow 1850), as well as metamorphic metal-rich rocks providing niches for specific assemblages of ferrophilous lichens. This also applies to two species described by Eitner (1911) from the abandoned mine area at Rudník, namely Rhizocarpon pycnocarpoides, recently once again recognized as taxonomically distinct (Westberg et al. 2015), and Lecanora subaurea, which was originally described by Eitner as L. aurea.

A basic overview of the current state of knowledge on the lichen biota in the Czech Republic is provided. Lichens of particular interest, e.g. those described from this country, globally rare species and endangered bioindicators are dealt with in more detail. Important lichenological localities in this country are briefly mentioned. Biogeographical aspects of Czech lichen biota are discussed and examples of various biogeographical elements given. Changes in abundance, especially of epiphytic lichens, both on a long time scale and in recent years, are evaluated, especially in relation to the latest national Red List of lichens. The phenomenon of recent recolonization and gradual spread of nitrophilous and previously rare or new acidophilous lichens is outlined.
... The species is known from Western Europe, China, India and the French Antarctic Territories (Llimona & Hladun, 2001;Coppins, 2002;Upreti et al., 2004;Aptroot et al., 2011;Wirth et al., 2013). Roux, 2012;Wirth et al., 2013;Westberg et al., 2015;Hafellner & Türk, 2016). In Russia the species was previously reported from the Murmansk region, Karelia, the Far East and Kamchatka (Andreev et al., 2003). ...
Ten species of lichenized ascomycetes are reported from the Urals. Aspicilia spermatomanes, Fuscidea praeruptorum, Lepra excludens, L. monogona, Metamelanea caesiella and Pertusaria amarescens are new to Russia while Bryobilimbia ahlesii, Lecanora orosthea, L. rouxii and Tephromela grumosa are new for the Urals. Our records considerably extend the ranges or fill gaps in the formerly disjunctive distributions of these species. The morphology, secondary chemistry and ecology of the species are discussed.
... -This species is common in the San Bernardino National Forest and more generally in the California mountains. The only known population of this species in Europe occurs in Norway (Westberg et al. 2015b). For a photograph of this species refer to Sharnoff (2014). ...
San Bernardino National Forest in southern California encompasses two major mountain ranges, the San Bernardino Mountains and the San Jacinto Mountains. Here 414 taxa of lichenized fungi are reported from San Bernardino National Forest as a whole; 327 from the San Jacinto Mountains (including the Santa Rosa Mountains), and 289 from the San Bernardino Mountains. Two species new to science are described: Lecanora remota and Lecidea stratura. Two undescribed taxa of Bellemerea and Scytinium are reported, both currently under study. Five species are reported new for North America and California: Gloeoheppia rugosa, Lecanora formosa, Peccania cernohorskyi, P. corallina and Psorotichia vermiculata. Peccania cernohorskyi is also reported new for Canada (British Columbia). Eight species are reported new for California: Caloplaca diphasia, C. isidiigera, Peltigera extenuata, Rhizocarpon simillimum, Rinodina lobulata, R. terrestris, Sarcogyne squamosa, and Xylographa difformis. Lecidea xanthococcoides is recognized as a synonym of Lecanora cadubriae. The California endemic Lecidea kingmanii is reported as producing 4-0-demethylplanaic acid. Polysporina simplex is treated as Acarospora simplex and P. urceolata as A. urceolata. The new combination Acarospora gyrocarpa is proposed for Polysporina gyrocarpa.
... and Sarcogyne hypophaeoides Vain. ex H. Magn., both of which have discs lacking carbonized accretions (Westberg et al. 2015b). Sarcogyne hypophaeoides can occasionally have a central carbonized umbo which could be an ontogenic remnant or the beginning of an apothecium splitting into two or more apothecia. ...
Acarospora brodoana K. Knudsen, Kocourk. & M. Westb. is described from the San Bernardino Mountains in southern California. A black hypothecium distinguishes it from other species with a carbonized epihymenium. Sarcogyne albothallina K. Knudsen, Wheeler & M. Westb. is described from the Missouri Breaks in Montana. A white non-farinose thallus and production of 4-O-methylhiascic acid distinguishes it from other species with a carbonized epihymenium. Both species would previously have been placed in Polysporina. The current reported diversity of Acarosporaceae in North America north of Mexico is 93 species.
... Roux is sorediate, but T. atra is not (Muggia et al. 2008). While T. atra includes α-collatolic and α-alectoronic acid, T. grumosa includes lichesterinic acid (Westberg et al. 2015, Millot et al. 2008, Hesbacher et al. 1996. T. atra is very similar morphologically with Lecanora gangaleoides but it can be easily distinguished with its purple hymenium (Millot et al. 2008). ...
In this study; we analysed the ITS sequences of 9 lichenized fungi species (Aspicilia cinerea, Circinaria contorta, Lecidea atrobrunnea, Lecanora rupicola, Physcia dubia, Rhizoplaca peltata, Rhizocarpon geographicum, Tephromela atra and Xanthoparmelia pulla) which have a wide distribution in the alpine zone of Erciyes Volcanic Mountain in Central Anatolia. ITS sequence data obtained from those 9 species are deposited by us in GenBank for further molecular studies and Neighbor-joining dendrograms with related species obtained from GenBank are also presented here along with the macroscopic photographs of the specimens studied. Besides, morphological and ecological differences between the related species are discussed.
... Candelariella commutata was discovered in Hasselrot's material and described by Otte et al. (2013). The little known Rhizocarpon pycnocarpoides, similar to R. oederi but differing in, for example, its colourless, muriform spores was collected for the first time in Sweden during the Pältsan excursion in 2011 and reported in Westberg et al. (2015). ...
... New to Sweden. This species was reported from the Murmansk region in arctic Russia by Fryday (2011) and the first two Norwegian finds were recently reported by Westberg et al. (2015); it is also known from Austria and Spain. The species is parasitic on Protoparmelia badia and was found on a vertical rock surface in the northern slope. ...
