Lichens of Franz Josef Land archipelago

Abstract

Information on lichens of Franz Josef Land is summarized based on original and literature data. Two hundred twenty nine lichen species are documented, of which 59 species and two varieties are newly reported for this territory. This represents only 13% of the Arctic lichen flora richness. We have found 28 rare lichen species in the archipelago and recommend to include 9 species in the Red Data Book of the Arkhan-gelsk Region of Russia.

59 species and two varieties are newly reported for this territory. This represents only

Introduction
The first information about lichens of Franz Josef Land was published by
Fischer (1896), who reported seven lichen species collected by the expedition
of Jackson and Harmsworth in 1894–97. The Italian expedition “Spedizione
Polare di S. A. R. Luigi Amadeo di Savoia Duca degli Abruzzi 1899–1900”
collected 24 lichen species which were subsequently determined by A. Jatta and
published by Mattirolo and Belli (1903). Elenkin and Savichz (1912) reported
41 lichen species collected by I.V. Palibin during the Russian expedition on
the icebreaker “Ermak” in 1901. Lynge (1931) published 69 lichen species
collected by O. Hanssen during the Norwegian expedition in 1930. Around
the same time Savichz (1932) published results of the Russian expedition on
the icebreaker “Sedow” in 1929. Further contributions to the lichen flora were
done within the framework of the geobotanical study of Alexandra Land Island
(Alexandrova 1969, 1977, 1981, 1983). Additional information on some lichen

taxa from the region occurred in subsequent papers on lichens or lichenicolous
fungi (Vitikainen 1994; Zhurbenko and Santesson 1996; Urbanavichus 2001;
Jørgensen 2004; Halonen et al. 2009; Zhurbenko 2009; Kukwa and Zhurbenko
2010; Onut-Brännström et al. 2018). Andreev et al. (1996) summarized data
on 127 lichen taxa known by that time from Franz Josef Land. The panarctic
lichen checklist (Kristinsson et al. 2010) lists 154 species for the archipelago.
Recent book on plants and fungi of the polar deserts in the northern hemisphere
(Zhurbenko and Konoreva 2015) contains data on 100 terrestrial lichen species
from the area.
The aim of this paper is to summarize all information on lichens of Franz
Josef Land based on original and literature data.
Materials and methods
This synopsis presented below is mainly based on identification of lichen
collections of S.S. Kholod (2012, 2015) and V.P. Savichz (1930). Results of
revision of some additional lichen collections, as well as all available literature
reports, are also included. The parts of the archipelago where lichens were
collected by S.S. Kholod and prior to his field studies are shown in Figs 1 and 2,
respectively. Lichen identification was performed by standart light microscopy
using Zeiss Primo Star, MBS-10 and MS-2 microscopes. For determination of
lichen substancies of Lepraria, Ochrolechia, Pertusaria and Stereocaulon species
thin layer chromatography was employed (Orange et al. 2001). The maps were
prepared using MapInfo programme. Voucher specimens are housed in the lichen
herbarium of the Komarov Botanical Institute in St. Petersburg, Russia (LE).
Study area
Franz Josef Land archipelago (Arkhangelsk Region of Russia) consisting
of 192 islands is located in the northern part of the Barents Sea, within
79°55’–81°51’N and 44°50’–65°30’E. Its area is 16134 km2. The Austrian
and British straits divide the archipelago into 3 groups: western, central and
eastern (Govorucha 1968). The distribution of water masses and degree of ice
cover of the surrounding water spaces have a significant effect on the physics-
geographical conditions of the archipelago. Its western part is under the prevailing
influence of the Atlantic waters. The Arctic waters predominate in its eastern
and northeastern parts. The central islands are under the mixed influence of
the Atlantic, Arctic and Barents Sea waters. The arrival of radiation heat in
the archipelago is 60 kcal/year. Its low value is due to the low standing of the
sun, the high albedo of glacial surfaces, and the prolonged polar night (up to

130 days). Despite the lack of radiation heat, the overcooling of the archipelago
does not occur due to the influx of advective heat and the influence of the sea.
Average monthly temperatures in winter do not drop below –27°C. The average
monthly summer temperatures do not exceed +2°C (July, August), the average
annual air temperature is –12°C. The summer on the archipelago is damp and
cold, often with night frosts (Govorucha 1968).
Most of the islands are an elevated basaltic plateau divided into separate
blocks by tectonic faults. 85% of the archipelago is covered with glaciers.
Melt waters of glaciers are the main sources of rivers, lakes and lightly saline
lagoons. Different types of ecotopes are represented by such landscape elements
as coastal shafts, marine terraces, mountain slopes, moraine ridges or areas along
the glacier margins with thixotropic soils.
Franz Josef Land is located within the polar desert nature zone (Matveyeva
2015). The soil profiles are thin, incomplete and characterized by weak expression
of genetic horizons. Humus soils occur in the west of the archipelago, sandy
and sandy loamy soils dominate in its eastern parts. Cryogenic processes led to
widespread polygonal soils. Bryophytes and lichens dominate in the vegetation
cover. In most plant communities the projective cover is 3–5%, however, along
the banks of meltwater streams it reaches 20–25%, and occasionally, for instance
near bird colonies, even 90%.

This is a common lichen morphologically very similar to Caloplaca saxicola
(Hoffm.) Nordin (Gaya 2009; Gaya et al. 2011; Vondrák et al. 2016) and formerly
often misidentified as the latter species (see for instance: Urbanavichus 2010).
The species can only be confidently identified using molecular data, so this
identification is uncertain as it was evidently based only on morphology.

Discussion
By the beginning of our research, 170 lichen species were known for
the archipelago (Kristinsson et al. 2010). As a result of the research, another
59 species were discovered, and thus the total richness of its known lichen flora
numbers 229 species. However, this represents only 13% of the Arctic lichen
flora richness (Kristinsson et al. 2010), which suggests that lichen flora of the
archipelago is far from being fully revealed. Indeed, many lichen collections
were made by geobotanists, which usually ommit species growing on stone
and drift-wood.
The most frequently reported lichen species in Franz Josef Land are the
following: Bryocaulon divergens, Cetrariella delisei, Cladonia coccifera, C. gracilis,
C. pyxidata, Ochrolechia frigida, Peltigera canina, P. rufescens, Pseudephebe
minuscula, P. pubescens, Sphaerophorus fragilis, S. globosus, Stereocaulon
alpinum, Tremolecia atrata, Umbilicaria hyperborea and U. proboscidea. Among
the most rarely reported lichen species in the archipelago are Agonimia gelatinosa,
Alectoria gowardii, Allocetraria madreporiformis, Arctocetraria nigricascens,
Arctomia delicatula, Bilimbia microcarpa, Bryonora septentrionalis, Bryostigma
muscigena, Buellia badia, Catillaria contristans, Cladonia libifera, Lecania
subfuscula, Lecanora campestris, Lecidella bullata, Lichenomphalia alpina,
Masonhalea inermis, Micarea lignaria, Multiclavula corynoides, M. vernalis,
Peltigera elisabethae, P. lyngei, Placopsis lambii, Protothelenella spinctrinoidella,
Rhizocarpon lecanorinum, Schadonia alpina, Thelidium papulare, Umbilicaria
aprina and U. leiocarpa. The latter includes species that are difficult to detect in
the field, species with obscure taxonomy, and/or species on the border of their
range. The lists of common and rare species of Franz Josef Land and the Arctic
are generally the same (Kristinsson et al. 2010).

Lichens of Franz Josef Land archipelago 169
According to the results of our research, we can recommend to include
the following lichen species in the Red Data Book of the Arkhangelsk Region
of Russia: Alectoria gowardii, Allocetraria madreporiformis, Arctocetraria
nigricascens, Masonhalea inermis, Peltigera lyngei, P. elisabethae, Placopsis
lambii, Umbilicaria aprina and U. leiocarpa.
