... Lichens and lichenicolous fungi continue to be added to the checklist of Norway, and other Fennoscandian countries, at a high rate (Ekman et al. 2019). Many of the more recent discoveries are in fact due to increased field-work activity (e.g., Arup et al. 2014, Frisch et al. 2020, Holien et al. 2016, Klepsland 2013, Klepsland & Timdal 2010, Nordén et al. 2013, Svensson et al. 2017, Tønsberg 2016, rather than taxonomic revisions. I here report an additional 30 species of lichens and fungal lichen parasites to the known biota of Norway. ...
Klepsland, J. T. 2020. Thirty lichens and lichenicolous fungi new to Norway. Graphis Scripta 32 (7): 120-143. Oslo. ISSN 2002-4495. Thirty species of lichens and lichenicolous fungi are reported new to Norway, along with short notes on diagnostic characters, distribution and ecology, viz. Acolium sessile, Arthonia amylospora, A. helvola, Bacidia fuscoviridis, Biatorella flavella, Caloplaca isidiigera, C. monacensis, Diplotomma pharcidium, Echinodiscus lesdainii, Endocarpon psorodeum, Gregorella humida, Gyalecta ophiospora, Heppia adglutinata, Hydropunctaria orae, Lecania koerberiana, Micarea fennica, M. tomentosa, Myriolecis antiqua, Parvoplaca nigroblastidiata, Porina rosei, Psoroglaena dictyospora, Rhizocarpon advenulum, Rinodina albana, R. polysporoides, Scutula curvispora, Staurothele arctica, Verrucaria hydrophila, Vezdaea rheocarpa, Xanthocarpia marmorata and Zhurbenkoa epicladonia.
... In recent times, species mapping projects and efforts in biodiversity conservation have considerably increased our understanding of species' distribution and ecology. Nevertheless, new taxa, including species new to science, in the Norwegian lichen biota are discovered almost every year, mainly among crustose lichens and in key habitats such as the oceanic forests along the Norwegian coastline (e.g., , Ertz et al. 2019, Haugan & Timdal 2019a,b, Haugan & Tønsberg 2018, Holien et al. 2016, Jordal et al. 2017, Jørgensen et al. 2013, Klepsland 2013, Nordén & Aptroot 2018, Nordén & Jordal 2016, Nordén et al. 2013, Palice & Tønsberg 2016, Tønsberg & Andersen 2019. ...
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.
... In 2004, the Fennoscandian checklist included 2414 lichen-forming species (Santesson et al. 2004), while the most recent one includes 2538 species (Nordin et al. 2017). Although new discoveries of macrolichens are indeed made (e.g., Arvidsson et al. 2012, Frödén and Thell 2010, Klepsland 2013, 2016, the main uncharted territory is found within the world of small, crustose lichens (e.g., Arup et al. 2014, Ekman 2015, Svensson and Palice 2009, Westberg et al. 2011, 2016. Crustose lichens comprise about two thirds of all lichens in Fennoscandia, but the taxonomic status, distribution and ecology of several hundred of these species are virtually unknown. ...
We present taxonomic, distributional and ecological notes on Fennoscandian crustose lichens and lichenicolous fungi, based on new collections as well as revision of herbarium material. Two new combinations are proposed: Frutidella furfuracea comb. nov. for F. pullata and Puttea duplex comb. nov. for Fellhanera duplex. Lecidea byssoboliza, L. carneoglauca and Variolaria torta are all reduced to synonymy with Bacidia antricola, Bacidia invertens is synonymized with B. igniarii, B. atrolivida with Mycobilimbia tetramera, and Gyalidea fruticola with Thelenella pertusariella. A new description is provided for Micarea hylocomii. 25 species of lichens and lichenicolous fungi are reported as new to Finland, Norway and/or Sweden: Absconditella lignicola (Norway), Bacidia antricola (Norway), B. polychroa (Norway), B. pycnidata (Sweden), Bacidina adastra (Sweden), Biatora veteranorum (Norway), Briancoppinsia cytospora (Finland), Catillaria scotinodes (Norway), Cliostomum subtenerum (Norway), Dirina fallax (Sweden), Fellhaneropsis almquistiorum (Norway), Gyalidea subscutellaris (Sweden), Lecania inundata (Norway), L. suavis (Norway), Micarea capitata (Norway), M. deminuta (Norway), M. hylocomii (Sweden), M. lynceola (Sweden), M. soralifera (Sweden), M. subconfusa (Sweden), Mycoblastus sanguinarioides (Finland, Sweden), Paralecia pratorum (Sweden), Puttea duplex (Sweden), Sarcogyne algoviae (Finland) and Toninia subnitida (Norway). Lectotypes are designated for Bacidia antricola, Lecidea byssoboliza, Lecidea carneoglauca, Lecidea subconfusa and Lecidea submoestula.
... Here, we add ten saxicolous lichens to the Scandinavian flora, mainly found in the still poorly investigated montane areas of Scandinavia. Also new macrolichens are continuously discovered in Scandinavia (Frödén 2010, Hultengren et al. 2011, Klepsland 2013, Klepsland and Timdal 2010) and here we report Nephroma helveticum new to Sweden, a rare and declining species in Europe that needs attention and possible conservation actions. In addition we confirm the presences of Cladonia albonigra in Sweden. ...
... In Europe, however, the species is very rare and appears to have declined considerably (Klepsland 2103, James andWhite 1987). There are very few recent finds, among them a locality in Oppland in Norway, which is the first find in that country (Klepsland 2013). In the Nordic countries it is elsewhere known from a few old localities in Finland (Vitikainen 2007). ...
Fourteen species of lichenized or lichenicolous fungi are reported new to either Norway or Sweden or both countries. Several of these are rare and almost unknown. The reported species are: Acarospora insignis (new to Norway), A. pyrenopsoides (Norway, Sweden), A. versicolor (Norway), Calvitimela perlata (Sweden), Lecidea degeliana (Sweden), Nephroma helveticum (Sweden), Peltula placodizans (Norway), Phacographa
protoparmeliae (Norway), Rhizocarpon pycnocarpoides (Norway, Sweden), Sarcogyne algoviae (Sweden),
Sarcogyne hypophaeoides (Norway, Sweden), Tephromela grumosa (Norway), Tremella lobariacearum
(Norway) and Tremella wirthii (Sweden). In addition Cladonia albonigra is confirmed from Sweden.
Sarcogyne hypophaeoides is lectotypified and is also reported new to Austria.
DNA barcodes are increasingly being used for species identification amongst the lichenised fungi. This paper presents a dataset aiming to provide an authoritative DNA barcode sequence library for a wide array of Nordic lichens.
We present 1324 DNA barcode sequences (nrITS) for 507 species in 175 genera and 25 orders. Thirty-eight species are new to GenBank and, for 25 additional species, ITS sequences are here presented for the first time. The dataset covers 20–21% of the Nordic lichenised species. Barcode gap analyses are given and discussed for the three genera Cladonia , Ramalina and Umbilicaria . The new combination Bryobilimbia fissuriseda (Poelt) Timdal, Marthinsen & Rui is proposed for Mycobilimbia fissuriseda and Nordic material of the species, currently referred to as Pseudocyphellaria crocata and Psoroma tenue ssp. boreale, are shown to belong in Pseudocyphellaria citrina and Psoroma cinnamomeum , respectively.
