... It seems to be relatively widespread in Southern Europe, south of 45° latitude (GBIF Secretariat 2023). North of that latitude in Europe, there are only very few known occurrences, namely in Belarus, Lithuania (Motiejūnaitė 2002), Russia (Muchnik & Konoreva 2017), Finland (lichenportal.org) and Iceland (Ahti & Stenroos 2013;GBIF Secretariat 2023). ...
... The species has been mainly reported growing on bare soil in exposed areas, with preference for acid substrates (Burgaz et al. 2020a) but has also been reported from wood (Tsurykau & Golubkov 2015;Muchnik & Konoreva 2017). This largely matches the ecology of the new site based on the species composition, albeit the soil samples have not been analyzed yet. ...

While sampling the vegetation of the semi-natural grasslands with the EDGG standard methodology on the Swedish island of Gotland, the terricolous lichen species Cladonia homosekikaica Nuno from the C. pyxidata-chlorophaea complex was found in 2022. This is the first record of this species from Sweden. We provide here detailed information on its differentiation from similar Cladonia species, characterize its overall distribution and its site conditions on Gotland. The new locality is far away from the next occurrences, which are mainly in southern Europe, with isolated records in Iceland and Finland. The vegetation type was a nutrient-poor sandy grassland near the coast, belonging to the association Festucetum polesicae (alliance: Koelerion glaucae, order: Sedo acris-Festucetalia, class: Koelerio-Corynephoretea canescentis). The overall distribution of Cladonia homosekikaica indicates that the species is slightly xero-thermophilous and occurs in slightly acidic grasslands. It thus might be found in other sandy dry grasslands around the Baltic Sea.

Twelve species of lichens and lichenicolous fungi are reported as new to Fennoscandia. Additionally, we report 19 species as new to Norway. New localites are given for 47 rare or seldom collected species. The new combination Reichlingia anombrophila (Coppins & P. James) Frisch is proposed. Most collections were made in the boreo-nemoral and boreal rainforests during the NBIC funded project Three storied diversity – mapping and barcoding crustose lichens and lichenicolous fungi in the Norwegian rainforests and associated fieldwork in recent years. With the present contribution, we hope to raise awareness on previously neglected groups of lichenised and lichenicolous fungi and encourage further fieldwork in understudied habitats in Norway.

The monograph presents the results of generalization and critical analysis of data accumulated over the 240-year history of lichen studies on the territory of modern Belarus, including the author's original materials. As a result of the work, 722 species of lichens and lichenicolous fungi are accepted for the territory of the country, of which two species are described by the author as new to science, 78 species are reported for the first time for Belarus. 99 species are excluded from the list of lichen biota. Taxonomical, geographical, biomorphological and ecological-substrate analyzes of the lichen biota of Belarus were carried out for the first time. All the main features and trends in the dynamics of lichen species diversity are identified and characterized. A system of life forms of lichens of forest communities is proposed.
